The study focuses on comparing two surgical techniques for treating frontal sinusitis: the trans-axillary technique and the intact bulla technique, highlighting the ongoing debates around their effectiveness.
The trial involved 40 patients randomly assigned to each technique, measuring factors like surgery duration, post-operative results, and symptom improvement through specific scoring systems.
Results showed that the trans-axillary technique took longer and had a higher recurrence rate and more complications compared to the intact bulla technique, but both methods were still effective in improving patient symptoms.
