A frontal sinus fracture treatment algorithm is proposed and statistically validated. Nasofrontal outflow tract involvement with obstruction is best managed by obliteration or cranialization. Osteoneogenesis and fat obliteration are associated with unacceptable complication rates. Observation is safe when the nasofrontal outflow tract is intact.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
