Abstract

Aim, To evaluate the treatment outcomes of endoscopic prelacrimal approach in managing various maxillary sinus pathologies, analyzing the associated adverse events and post treatment quality of life and also to compare surgical outcomes of prelacrimal approach with middle meatal antrostomy approach to remove various maxillary sinus pathologies. Materials and methods: A prospective study was conducted from January 2019 to April 2020. We took 60 patients with maxillary sinus pathologies and divided into two groups and done sinus surgery through middle meatal antrostomy approach (group A) and prelacrimal approach (group B). Post operative follow up done for one year and analyzed complications and recurrence. Results: We compared the recurrence rate of antrochoanal polyp in both groups. Out of 12 patients in group A, 6 patients (50%) got recurrence of polyp. In group B, only one patient (8%) got recurrence out of 12 patients of antrochoanal polyp. Conclusion: We conc lude that prelacrimal recess approach is a better option than middle meatal antrostomy for complete removal of pathologies in maxillary sinus.
