Management of the giant frontal sinus--a simple method to improve cosmesis.

Frontal bossing can be caused by many craniofacial syndromes, however an enlarged frontal sinus is a rare cause. Because of this the management of this condition is variable. One option is to remove the anterior wall of the frontal sinus and dividing this into segments which are then fixed in the desired position using miniplates.This however may prove difficult in thin bone and in these cases the periosteum can be left intact to splint the fragments which are then repositioned using resorbable sutures.
