title: A method of head restraint in unanesthetized cats by using frontal sinus.
abstract: Two stainless steel bolts were implanted and fixed parallel in the frontal sinus of cats with dental acrylic and screws. When unanaesthetized, the head was fixed to a frame by securing the bolts to an acrylic plate. This arrangement provides a quick, rigid and safe fixation of the head without any signs of discomfort.
