Failed cases were associated with advanced degrees of mucosal pathology in the preoperative CT scan. Sinuses ostia with anteroposterior diameters less than 5.36\u00a0mm showed more susceptibility for sinus restenosis postoperatively. The variability of the anteroposterior length of the frontal recess did not affect the surgical outcome.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/coa.13750","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,3]],"date-time":"2021-03-03T07:53:44Z","timestamp":1614758024000},"page":"834-840","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The
