Abstract
Introduction and objectives

Endoscopic sinus surgery is the technique of choice in most of the frontal sinus diseases, both inflammatory and tumour-related. This is why the external approach using osteoplastic flap (OF) would be limited to cases with a difficult endoscopic approach. Our aim was to review the current indications of the osteoplastic flap in the treatment of frontal sinus pathology, through a retrospective study of patients undergoing this technique.

Methods

We performed a retrospective study of 14 patients who were treated with the osteoplastic flap procedure. All the surgical indication criteria, type of sinus disease, presence or absence of prior endoscopic surgery, surgical findings, complications and recurrence were reviewed.

Results

The pathologies found were 1 osteoma (7.1%), 3 inverted papilloma (21.4%) and 10 mucoceles (71.4%). Nine patients had a prior endoscopic surgery and 10 patients had an orbital dehiscence (9 mucocele, 1 papilloma). Frontal osteoma was Grade IV and the papilloma cases were Krouse Stage III. Surgical revision was required for 21.4%.

Conclusions

The main indications for an OF in patients with inflammatory disease are lateral extension and frontal recess neo-osteogenesis. In osteoma cases, it depends on the size of the tumour. In inverted papilloma cases, the indication is multifocal implantation with origin in the anterior and lateral wall. In all cases, performing the osteoplastic flap must be individualised.

Resumen
Introducción y objetivos

La cirugía endoscópica nasosinusal es la técnica de elección en la mayoría de los procesos patológicos del seno frontal, tanto inflamatorios como tumorales, quedando relegadas las indicaciones del abordaje externo mediante osteoplastia frontal para casos con dificultades por vía endoscópica. El objetivo de este trabajo es revisar las indicaciones actuales de la osteoplastia frontal en la patología del seno frontal mediante un estudio retrospectivo de pacientes intervenidos de esta técnica.

Métodos

Se realiza un estudio retrospectivo de 14 pacientes intervenidos de osteoplastia frontal en el que se revisaron los criterios de las indicaciones quirúrgicas, tipo de patología del seno frontal, existencia de cirugía endoscópica previa, hallazgos quirúrgicos, complicaciones y recidiva.

Resultados

La patología del seno frontal fue de un osteoma (7,1%), 3 papilomas invertidos (21,4%) y 10 mucoceles (71,4%). Nueve pacientes habían sido intervenidos previamente de cirugía endoscópica. Diez pacientes presentaron una dehiscencia orbitaria (9 casos de mucocele y un caso de papiloma). El osteoma frontal era de gradoiv y los 3 casos de papilomas correspondían a un gradoiii de Krouse. El 21,4% requirieron una revisión quirúrgica.

Conclusiones

Las principales indicaciones son la extensión lateral y la neo-osteogénesis del receso frontal en el caso de la enfermedad inflamatoria del seno frontal, el tamaño del tumor en el caso de los osteomas, y la implantación multifocal con origen en la pared anterior y lateral en el caso de los papilomas invertidos. En todos los casos la indicación de osteoplastia frontal debe hacerse de forma individualizada.
