Summary: | Access to a paranasal sinus is provided through implantation of an implant device with a conduit of the implant device disposed through a fistula surgically-formed between a location in the lacrimal apparatus and a paranasal sinus. As implanted, the implant device has a proximal end disposed in the lacrimal apparatus in the orbit, a distal end disposed in the paranasal sinus and an internal passage that provides fluid communication between the lacrimal apparatus in the orbit and the paranasal sinus. |
