Procdeures
| Basic Concept |
![]() |
The natural ostium of maxillary sinus opens in the
anterior fontanelle. The anterior fontanelle lies anterior to the uncinate process and the ethmoidal process of inferior turbinate. |
¡¡
| Approach 1 |
1-1 Resection of polyp tissues/medialization of MT is performed and free margin of UP is exposed.
1-2 Reverse cutting forceps are used to open the infundibulum by cutting UP from back to front.

1-3 The anterior fontanelle is opened and enlarged with cutting forceps.

1-4 Bulla ethmoidalis is removed and the 3rd ground lamella of MT is exposed.
![]() |
The large middle meatal antrostomy opening is a good landmark for the ethmoidectomy. |
¡¡
| Approach 2 |
![]() |
By perforating the mucosa over anterior fontanelle and medial fracture of the uncinate process, the maxillary antrum can be easily apporached. |
2-1 When UP free margin is not found, direct
perforation of the anterior fontanelle with angled
knife or elevator is performed.
