title: [Endoscopic rhinosurgery: from simple intranasal surgery to interventions on orbital apex and base of the skull].
abstract: This paper is focused on the main methods and indications for endoscopic intranasal surgery, from conventional infundibulotomy for the management of chronic rhinosinusutis resistant to conservative therapy to up-to-date endoscopic techniques for the treatment of lacrimal duct obstruction, nasal liquorrhea, endocrine ophthalmopathy, benign and malignant tumours of paranasal sinuses, and skull base lesions. A review of the literature data is supplemented by original clinical observations.
