title: USE OF OSTEOTOMY IN POST-TRAUMATIC DEFORMITY OF FRONTAL SINUS ANTERIOR WALL. CASE REPORT.
abstract: Post-traumatic deformity of frontal sinus anterior table can be treated in various ways. Usage of a certain type of an implant is a common method. We performed an osteotomy and subsequent reduction of the fragments to reconstruct their anatomical position. Titanium miniplates and screws were used for fixation. This case report suggests a possible use of this method in patients with more extensive frontal sinus and distinct post-traumatic deformity. No similar case manages as described in our case report was found in the literature.
