Middle meatotomies were essentially performed during the second period of our study from 1985 to 1987. The typical indication was for closed sinusitis, in order to allow aeration and satisfactory drainage. This was performed with an optical system at 30 degrees. The technique used was an anterior approach via total unciformectomy or a posterior approach using an Ostrum forceps. Good results, i.e. meatotomies which remained patent, were obtained in 80% of cases. The mean period of follow up was 3 years (6 months to 4 years). There were few complications overall for this form of endonasal surgery, though the possibility of damage to the lacrymal duct does exist. Synechiae were the most important functional complication and need to be prevented by meticulous post-operative care. |
