Abstract:Abstract:ObjectiveTo explore the endoscopic surgery for sinonasal benign osseous lesion involving orbit by analyzing the surgical methods, characteristics, complications and therapeutic effect.MethodsA retrospective analysis was completed on 13 patients with sinonasal benign osseous lesions involving orbit hospitalized in our department from Jan 2014 to July 2018. The lesions included osteoma (n=7), osteodysplasia fibrosa (n=4), and ossifying fibroma(n=2). Of them, intraorbital lesions were found in 2 cases with ethmoid sinus osteoma, and the other 11 cases had lesions with orbital wall involvement. All patients underwent nasal endoscopic surgery to excise lesions completely with adoption of image navigation technology, nasal septum fenestration as well as prelacrimal recess approach for exact lesion localization. Taking intact of orbital fasciae as principle, orbital wall was not reconstructed except in one case with intraorbital involvement by giant ethmoid sinus osteoma.ResultsComplete endoscopic removal of lesion and involved orbital wall was achieved in all cases. Mild periorbital swelling was found in 5 patients at the 1st postoperative day, and relieved after removing nasal packing without functional disturbance of eyeball. Postoperative CT showed normal intraorbital structures and position. Postoperative followup for 11 to 65 months showed neither recurrence nor complication in all cases. Adequate sinus drainage and good epithelization were obtained.ConclusionsCompletely resection of orbital structures involved by sinonasal benign osseous lesion can reduce recurrence. Good mastery of rhinoorbit related anatomy, clear surgical field and proper operating angle are the keys for success. Nasal endoscopic management has advantages of minimal invasion and high curative effect.
