“…Während früher eine externe osteoplastische Operation erfolgte [426,[602][603][604][605], gibt es zunehmende Fallberichte über erfolgreiche Therapien durch rein endonasale endoskopische Stirnhöhlenoperationen, ggf. mit zusätzlicher transkutaner Punktion [602][603][604][605]. Eine begleitende oder zugrunde liegende chronische Rhinosinusitis und Obstruktion des Stirnhöhlenausflusstraktes sollte endoskopisch (mit)therapiert werden.…”

Endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery is the standard procedure for surgery of most paranasal sinus diseases.Appropriate frame conditions provided, the respective procedures are safe and successful.These prerequisites encompass appropriate technical equipment, anatomical oriented surgical technique, proper patient selection, and individually adapted extent of surgery.The range of endonasal sinus operations has dramatically increased during the last 20 years and reaches from partial uncinectomy to pansinusoperation with extended surgery of the frontal (Draf type III), maxillary (grade 3-4, medial maxillectomy, prelacrimal approach) and sphenoid sinus.In addition there are operations outside and beyond the paranasal sinuses. The development of surgical technique is still constantly evolving.This article gives a comprehensive review on the most recent state of the art in endoscopic sinus surgery according to the literature with the following aspects: principles and fundamentals, surgical techniques, indications, outcome, postoperative care, nasal packing and stents, technical equipment.

Introdução: As complicações das rinossinusites (RS) incluem uma série de doenças que necessitam de reconhecimento e tratamento imediatos. A literatura descreve várias formas de classificação e definição destas doenças. Objetivos: Descrever aspectos epidemiológicos e fisiopatológicos das complicações das rinossinusites. Métodos: Revisão narrativa utilizando artigos recentes e históricos que norteiam nossa conduta e são utilizados como base dos tratamentos atuais. Resultados: Dentre as complicações das RS, as que mais se destacam pela frequência são as orbitárias, responsáveis por até 75% dos casos, principalmente em crianças. Além das orbitárias, podem ocorrer ainda as complicações ósseas e cerebrais, constituindo um grande desafio, tanto pela sua dificuldade diagnóstica, como pelos altos índices de morbimortalidade. Conclusão: Independente do tipo de complicação, deve-se sempre ter em mente esses diagnósticos diferenciais a fim de se iniciar o tratamento específico o mais precocemente possível e evitar desfechos desfavoráveis. Descritores:Complicações; Sinusite; Abscesso; Celulite orbitária; Empiema subdural. Abstract Rhinosinusitis complicationsIntroduction: The rhinosinusitis (RS) complications include a range of diseases that require immediate recognition and treatment. The literature describes several ways of classifying and defining them. Objectives: To describe epidemiologic and fisiologic aspects of the RS complications. Method: Narrative review using recent and historical articles that guide our conduct and are the basis of current treatments. Results: Among the complications of RS, the most frequent are the orbital, responsible for 75% of cases, mainly in children. Besides the orbital, there are bone and brain complications, constituting a great challenge, as much for diagnostic difficulty as for high morbidity and mortality rates. Conclusions: Despite the complication, it is important to keep in mind these differential diagnoses in order to provide the specific treatment soon as possible and avoid unfavorable outcomes.
