MMC solution was applied to the frontal ostial region via an endoscopic or combined endoscopic and external approach. Patency of the frontal ostium was evaluated endoscopically during regular follow-up. If restenosis was observed further, endoscopic application of MMC was undertaken.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There were 17 men and 11 women (mean age, 51.7 years; range, 26\u201386 years).
