Official title
Randomized Trial of Propel Stent vs Kenalog-soaked Nasopore After Frontal Drill-out
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Surgery on the frontal sinus is done for patients who have sinus problems that do not respond to medications. It involves making an opening within the right and left frontal sinus of the nose to help it drain. For severe frontal sinus disease, the sinus is widely opened and the left and right sinuses become one large sinus. This is done with sharp instruments and rigid endoscopes placed through the nostrils. While the sinus heals after surgery, a stent or steroids or both may be used to try to help make sure that the opening does not close back up. Two current options for this are Propel stents and steroid-soaked Nasopore. Propel stents are FDA-approved. Nasopore and Kenalog injection are both FDA-approved, but their use together is part of the study and not specifically FDA-approved. A previous study shows that Propel stents are useful to reduce scarring in other frontal sinus procedures. We would like to know whether this is true in larger frontal sinus surgery where one common cavity is made and whether both steroid-containing stents are the same.
