Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 8

Abstract

To study the various aspects of FESS and Caldwell-Luc approach in non neoplastic maxillary sinus pathologies. Forty patients were selected for the study. The age group ranged from 10-80 years. A male predominance had been seen in the study. In this study,all cases (100%) treated by FESS required General Anaesthesia, whereas, in Caldwell Luc Approach, 13 patients (65%) were operated under General Anaesthesia and 7 patients(35%) were operated under Local Anaesthesia. Subjective Improvement after 6 months of surgery was satisfactory in 90% cases of FESS and 60% cases of Caldwell-Luc Approach.
