Abstract

The frontal sinusitis after transfrontal craniotomy may be related to the inadequate sinus management, especially bone wax to be addressed to the frontal sinus ramming leading to frontal sinus mucosa secretion obstruction and poor drainage. Endoscopic frontal sinus surgery is a way of minimally invasive surgery. The satisfying curative effect can be obtained by endoscopic removal of bone wax, inflammatory granulation tissue, and the enlargement of frontal sinus aperture after exposure to the frontal sinus, and some cases was treated with both operation method.
