Maxillary Antrostomy Surgery Procedure

Maxillary antrostomy is a surgical procedure used to open the maxillary sinus cavity. This surgical procedure helps in improving sinus ventilation and drainage when the natural opening is blocked. It is also used to treat chronic sinus infections and other conditions that cause the sinuses to become blocked. 

During the procedure, a doctor first gives anesthesia to numb the area. After that, a surgeon makes an incision in the maxillary sinus wall, typically in the cheekbone region, and then drills through the bone to open the maxillary antrum. Once the opening is created, the surgeon inserts a small balloon into the sinus. This balloon is then inflated, which helps in creating a larger opening in the sinus. After that, the surgeon inserts a small tube into the maxillary antrum to help facilitate drainage. The final step of the procedure is to close the incision. It is typically done using sutures, although some surgeons may use glue or staples to close the incision.
