Bifrontal Craniectomy: A High-Yield Surgical Training Tool.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Medical Education, Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, Scranton, USA.
Bifrontal decompressive craniectomy (DC), which was once a popular technique for treating midline mass lesions, has seen a notable decline in its therapeutic use within modern neurosurgery. Despite its diminished clinical use, the procedure offers considerable value as an educational tool for surgical training. This study used a Thiel-embalmed cadaver to demonstrate the bifrontal DC procedure, including a Souttar incision, strategic (MacCarty, zygomatic, and apical) keyhole/burr hole placement, superior sagittal sinus suturing, left frontal lobe decortication, and microscopic visualization of the anterior cranial fossa.

Otolaryngology, Fairfield General Hospital, Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, GBR.
Silent sinus syndrome is a rare condition that typically affects the maxillary sinus, with only a few reported cases of frontal sinus involvement. Blockage of the sinus ostium leads to persistent hypoventilation, creating negative pressure and eventual sinus collapse. This report describes a previously undocumented case of facial asymmetry due to frontal silent sinus syndrome, following multiple childhood nasal injuries.

Department of Cardiology, Sancaktepe Sehit Prof. Dr. Ilhan Varank Training and Research Hospital, İstanbul, Türkiye.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mortality and the frontal QRS-T angle (FQRS-TA), obtained by calculating the absolute difference between the QRS and T waves electrocardiographically (ECG), in patients diagnosed with ischemic stroke (IS).
Methods: This research is a retrospective and cross-sectional study. The diagnosis of IS was confirmed through brain imaging and physical examination.
Fibrous Histiocytoma in the Far Lateral Frontal Sinus-A Rare Observation.
Diagnostics (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Medical University of Graz, Auenbruggerplatz 26, 8010 Graz, Austria.
This report describes a rare occurrence of benign fibrous histiocytoma in the frontal sinus of a 38-year-old male. The patient presented with acute symptoms, including sudden-onset headache, nausea, and general discomfort, although neurological, otorhinolaryngological and laboratory examinations showed no abnormalities. A cranial CT scan revealed a cystic, osteodestructive lesion measuring 2.

Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, USA.
Background: Steroid rinses and steroid-eluting stents are both options for preventing postoperative stenosis after frontal sinus surgery. This study aimed to assess whether steroid-eluting stents offer added benefit over steroid rinses alone in postoperative healing and long-term frontal sinus patency.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial enrolled patients with CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) who underwent surgery for bilateral and equal frontal sinusitis after failing prior medical therapy.
