In order to illustrate the necessity of obtaining informed consent before any form of nasal sinus surgery, the authors present 23 cases of insurance claims filed between 1976 and 1986 in private practice. Ten serious complications (6 cases of blindness, 4 fractures of the anterior cranial (fossa) and eight cases of oculomotor nerve paralysis are reported. The legal proceedings demonstrate the real risks of radical surgery to the sinuses, as well as intranasal ethmoidectomy and rhinoplasties.
为了说明在任何形式的鼻窦手术前获得知情同意的必要性，作者呈现了1976年至1986年在私人诊所提出的23例保险索赔案例。报告了10例严重并发症（6例失明、4例前颅窝骨折和8例动眼神经麻痹）。法律诉讼证明了鼻窦根治手术、鼻内筛窦切除术和鼻整形手术的实际风险。
