Surgical intervention through frontal sinus trephination , physical removal of the exudate, placement of a temporary drainage tube, and repeated irrigation successfully resolved most of the clinical symptoms. Follow-up over two years showed sustained clinical improvement, with only mild intermittent serous nasal discharge reported.

Techniques such as turbinectomy, frontal sinus ablation, and sinus trephination facilitate endoscopic access to the frontal sinus and nasal cavity, promote effective drainage and flushing to remove exudate and necrotic debris, and allow for sample collection, which is necessary for culture and histopathological evaluation [7,10,12,13].

Frontal sinus trephination , irrigation and /or obliteration may be indicated if CT/MRI indicates extensive in ammation within the frontal sinuses. Response is variable and cats tend not to cope as well with the surgery as dogs.
Frontal sinus trephination and ablation are surgical procedures used to treat chronic rhinosinusitis in cats . Trephination provides access to the sinus cavity for diagnostics and treatment, while ablation involves the removal of all sinus contents and mucosal lining to prevent further accumulation.
