Stents und Platzhalter in der endoskopischen endonasalen Nasennebenhöhlenchirurgie

Abstract

In endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery continuous progress has been made in the last decade due to better understanding of microanatomy, gains in adjunctive medicative therapy and technical innovations. Moreover, continuous research and clinical trials on innovative stents and spacers with and without defined drug eluting features may be mentioned in this context. A narrative review of the current development status and its therapeutic options referring to the latter is presented.

Der neuartige Propel mini Stent – Indikationen, Operationstechnik und erste klinische Erfahrungen

“…Ob durch die Implantation des Propel mini eine langfristige Restenosierung über Jahre, insbesondere bei geringerem Ostium-Durchmesser und ohne Draf-III-Operation, vermieden werden kann, sollte in zukünftigen Studien untersucht werden [16]. Des…”

Comprehensive review on endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery

“…Regarding the technique of endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery, there are a series of current and well established monographs that will be mentioned in this section [ 83 ], [ 170 ], [ 12 ], [ 180 ], [ 247 ], [ 253 ], [ 254 ], [ 255 ], [ 256 ], [ 257 ], [ 258 ], [ 259 ], [ 260 ], [ 261 ], [ 262 ], [ 263 ], [ 264 ], [ 265 ], [ 266 ], [ 267 ], [ 268 ] [ 269 ], [ 270 ], [ 271 ], [ 272 ], [ 273 ], [ 274 ].…”

“… The frontal sinus outflow tract is lined anteriorly by the agger nasi cell, which is the first cell in the frontal CT scan that depicts the key structure on the way to the frontal sinus [ 353 ], and the cranially above-lying frontoethmoidal cells [ 354 ], [ 355 ]. Dorsally the ethmoid bulla is located and the bulla cells (supra bulla cell or frontal bulla; [ 256 ]). Medially there are the cells in the nasal and frontal sinus septum (intersinus septal cells).…”

Danger points, complications and medico-legal aspects in endoscopic sinus surgery

“…Quite a number of special dissection manuals have been published [654], [655], [656], [657], [658], [659], [660], [661], [662]. Ideal conditions would imply a training laboratory available in every teaching clinic [663].…”
