Abstract
Objective: For frontal sinus inverted papilloma (FSIP) management, an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) can be combined (or not) with an external approach by an osteoplastic flap (OPF) or with a more conservative open approach. The present study aims to describe our experience in the management of FSIP, focusing on disease-related and anatomical features influencing outcomes and recurrence.
Methods: This case series of FSIP investigated anatomical and disease-related predictors of recurrence associated with EEA or a combined EEA-OPF approach. A systematic review was also performed, selecting publications on IP with the insertion point in the frontal sinus or frontal recess.
Results: Among 30 patients included, 18 underwent EEA, while 12 received a combined EEA-OPF approach. During a median follow-up of 37 months, the frontal sinus was cleared of IP in all cases except 2 in the EEA group, who presented a complex posterior wall shape of the frontal sinus. From the systematic review, a combined EEA-OPF approach was associated with a lower risk of recurrence.
Conclusions: A correct indication for a combined EEA-OPF approach is paramount and should integrate all disease-related and anatomical features, including posterior wall shape.
期刊介绍:
Acta Otorhinolaryngologica Italica first appeared as “Annali di Laringologia Otologia e Faringologia” and was founded in 1901 by Giulio Masini.
It is the official publication of the Italian Hospital Otology Association (A.O.O.I.) and, since 1976, also of the Società Italiana di Otorinolaringoiatria e Chirurgia Cervico-Facciale (S.I.O.Ch.C.-F.).
The journal publishes original articles (clinical trials, cohort studies, case-control studies, cross-sectional surveys, and diagnostic test assessments) of interest in the field of otorhinolaryngology as well as clinical techniques and technology (a short report of unique or original methods for surgical techniques, medical management or new devices or technology), editorials (including editorial guests – special contribution) and letters to the Editor-in-Chief.
Articles concerning science investigations and well prepared systematic reviews (including meta-analyses) on themes related to basic science, clinical otorhinolaryngology and head and neck surgery have high priority.
