Endoscopic Maxillary Antrostomy

Endoscopic Maxillary Antrostomy is available through Mark Cuban Companies Health Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Endoscopic maxillary antrostomy is a surgical procedure used to treat conditions affecting the maxillary sinus, such as chronic sinusitis or maxillary sinus obstruction. This minimally invasive procedure involves the use of an endoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a camera attached, to access and visualize the maxillary sinus. The surgeon makes a small incision in the nasal passages and inserts the endoscope to create an opening, known as an antrostomy, in the floor of the maxillary sinus. This opening allows for improved drainage and ventilation of the maxillary sinus, facilitating the removal of diseased or obstructive tissue and the delivery of medications to the affected area. Endoscopic maxillary antrostomy is typically performed under general anesthesia in an operating room setting and offers several advantages over traditional open sinus surgery, including shorter recovery times, reduced post-operative discomfort, and improved outcomes. Patients undergoing this procedure can expect relief from symptoms such as facial pain, pressure, or recurrent sinus infections, ultimately leading to improved quality of life.
