APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF ETHMOID SINUSITIS |
| 摘要 |
Fluid communication may be improved for an ethmoid sinus by installing a port or wick in the wall of the ethmoid sinus to provide a fluid passageway across the wall of the ethmoid sinus. Fluid communication for an ethmoid sinus may also be improved by inflating a balloon in a retrobullar space, remodeling the posterior wall of the ethmoid bulla to expand the transition area in the retrobullar space. In addition, a wall defining the retrobullar space may be pierced to provide a passageway for fluid communication. |

1. A method of treating a sinus cavity, the method comprising
(a) piercing at least one wall of the sinus cavity; and (b) inserting at least one fluid transfer member in the at least one wall of the sinus cavity, wherein the fluid transfer member is configured to provide a fluid communication path between the interior of the sinus cavity and a region external to the sinus cavity. |
