Parsons window -- thanks!
Subject: Parsons window -- thanks!

The uncinate process was removed anteriorly.  A Parsons window was created.  The microdebrider was then used to remove the uncinate process extending superiorly to expose the agger nasi cell and inferiorly to expose a very congested maxillary ostium.  Soft tissue edema was debrided from the area. 


I'll go with Parsons window, after the ENT surgeon.  Thanks all!
