Different Endoscopic Approaches for Sphenoid Sinus
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
endoscopic sinus surgery: Different approaches include: type I, sphenoid ostial dilation. type IIa, transnasal sphenoidotomy (sphenoidotomy without ethmoidectomy). type IIb, transethmoidal sphenoidotomy (sphenoidotomy with ethmoidectomy). type III, bilateral, common cavity sphenoidotomy, or "sphenoid drill-out;" type IV, transpterygoid approach, to expose the lateral sphenoid sinus recess. type V, sphenoid nasalization, completely removing the sphenoid sinus floor.
Study summary
* Identification of the most effective approach for different lesion types
* Correlation between approach and complication rates
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- To evaluate different endoscopic surgical approaches to the sphenoid sinus — 6 months
* Complete lesion removal measured by post operative imaging ct * Complications examples Csf leakage Optic nerve injury (measured by visual acuity) * Carotid artery injury(bleeding) * Infection(meningitis csf examination if suspected) - To evaluate different endoscopic surgical approaches to the sphenoid sinus regarding: * Completence of lesion removal. * Complications. - Csf leakage - Optic nerve injury — 6 month
complications rate (csf leakage , optic nerve injury, carotid artery injury) * Recurrence * Endoscopic patency of sphenoid osteum and synechia formation
