We defined (1) the \u201chorizon sign\u201d as the curvilinear shadow of the posterior table cast superiorly upon the anterior table of the frontal sinus at the acute angle of their meeting point and (2) the \u201cfrontal bar\u201d as a sagittal septation at the union of the anterior\/posterior tables. A cadaveric study, followed by an intraoperative consecutive case series, was performed to evaluate these 2 landmarks as indicators of complete dissection. The horizon sign was extremely reliable, identified in 100% of cadaveric frontal sinuses and intraoperative frontal sinuses. The frontal bar was present in only 67% of frontal sinuses by computed tomography. In live patients, the sensitivity and specificity of the frontal bar were 62% and 95%, respectively.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0194599818825472","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]],"date-time":"2019-01-29T04:55:01Z","timestamp":1548737701000},"page":"740-743","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Horizon Sign and Frontal Bar: Two Topographic Landmarks to Confirm Endoscopic Frontal Sinusotomy"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"160","author":[{"given":"Evan S.","family":"Walgama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Department of Surgery Cedars Sinai Medical Center Los Angeles California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew","family":"Thamboo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery University of British Columbia Vancouver British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Navarat","family":"Tangbumrungtham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Rhinology Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery School of Medicine Stanford University Palo Alto California USA"},{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Ramathibodi Hospital Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Noel","family":"Ayoub","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Rhinology Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery School of Medicine Stanford University Palo Alto California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zara M.","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Rhinology Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery School of Medicine Stanford University Palo Alto California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jayakar V.","family":"Nayak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Rhinology Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery School of Medicine Stanford University Palo Alto California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/alr.21079"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjoto.2004.06.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.27016"}],"container-title":["Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0194599818825472","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/0194599818825472","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0194599818825472","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,20]],"date-time":"2025-10-20T10:24:11Z","timestamp":1760955851000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0194599818825472"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]]},"references-count":3,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,4]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0194599818825472"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0194599818825472","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0194-5998","1097-6817"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0194-5998"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1097-6817"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2018-06-29","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2018-12-21","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2019-01-29","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
