[Endoscopic maxillary sinus surgery through anterior or posterior nasolacrimal duct approach].
To explore the feasibility and effectiveness of the approaches and methodology of the endoscopic surgery for maxillary sinus lesions through the medial wall of the maxillary sinus. ⋯ Endoscopic maxillary sinus surgery through anterior or posterior nasolacrimal duct approach can reduce the trauma, fully expose the sinuses, and facilitate postoperative treatment and review with a window. Retained inferior nasal turbinate is helpful to avoid dryness, crusting, headache and other complications due to too much removal of nasal exteral walls.

[Clinical value of upper airway pressure measurement and Friedman staging system in preoperative evaluation for obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome].
To evaluate the clinical value of localization of upper airway obstructive site with pressure measurements and Friedman staging system in preoperative upper airway reconstructive surgery for obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), and to evaluate the value of Friedman staging system in predicting the upper airway obstructive site. ⋯ Friedman staging system, in particular the FTP grading, had a correlation with upper airway pressure measurements (AG) in determination of the lower level of upper airway obstructive site, especially the retroglossal region, which could predict the main localization of upper airway obstructive site identified by upper airway pressure measurements during the sleep.
