Endoscopic assessment of frontal ostium patency and patient reported symptoms were prospectively collected on patients who underwent frontal sinusotomy between January 2003 and December 2009. High\u2010risk cohorts were studied to assess their response to standard endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) compared with EMLP.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 339 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria underwent either primary or revision endoscopic frontal sinus surgery.

Postsurgical recurrence of disease with persistence of symptoms requiring an EMLP occurred in 9 patients in the primary group and 38 in the revision group. The highest risk groups for failure of standard frontal sinusotomy were patients with nasal polyps, asthma, Lund\u2010Mackay score &gt;16, and frontal ostium size &lt;4 mm (relative risk = 9.9, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0001).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with underlying asthma and polyposis as well as narrow frontal ostia and extensive radiological disease have a high failure rate from standard endoscopic frontal sinusotomy. In this patient group consideration should be given to offering the patient a primary EMLP procedure, which has excellent success rates with low risks and low morbidity.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/alr.21109","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,7]],"date-time":"2012-11-07T17:46:39Z","timestamp":1352310399000},"page":"412-417","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":61,"title":["Risk factors and outcomes for primary, revision, and modified Lothrop (Draf III) frontal sinus surgery"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Yuresh","family":"Naidoo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery\u2013Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery University of Adelaide  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ahmed","family":"Bassiouni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery\u2013Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery University of Adelaide  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Keen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery\u2013Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery University of Adelaide  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter\u2010John","family":"Wormald","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery\u2013Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery University of Adelaide  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.20653"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-323-05283-2.00054-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/alr.21015"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2004.03.022"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2500\/105065800779954266"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2500\/105065897781446793"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.20565"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200311000-00025"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2500\/ajra.2009.23.3265"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000126066"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.mlg.0000182825.82910.80"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2500\/ajra.2009.23.3373"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.MLG.0000162651.22019.4A"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200203000-00016"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","first-page":"82","article-title":"Surgery of the frontal recess and frontal sinus","volume":"43","author":"Wormald PJ","year":"2005","journal-title":"Rhinology"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200302000-00015"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MLG.0b013e31818208c1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.22374"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.22461"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MLG.0b013e31806865be"}],"container-title":["International Forum of Allergy &amp; Rhinology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Falr.21109","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/alr.21109","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,16]],"date-time":"2023-10-16T13:14:47Z","timestamp":1697462087000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/alr.21109"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,7]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/alr.21109"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/alr.21109","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-6976","2042-6984"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2042-6976","type":"print"},{"value":"2042-6984","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,7]]}}}
