En bloc removal of the ethmoid and ostiomeatal complex in cadavers, with a practical application.
Two different approaches, i.e. the anterior approach and the combined approach, for en bloc removal of the ethmoidal and ostiomeatal complex are described. In both techniques the contours of the face are completely maintained. Preliminary studies of prevalence of nasal polyps found by using these methods are described.
