FS: Frontal Sinus; FR: Frontal Recess; FE: Fronto-ethmoidal; EE: Endoscopic Endonasal; OPF: Osteoplastic Flap; EFT: Endoscopic Frontal Trephination; ExFs: External Frontal Sinusotomy; Lynch: external approach through Lynch incision; TrP: transpalpebral; CR: Complete Resection; PR: Partial Resection; NED: No Evidence of Disease; AWD: Alive With Disease; DOC: Dead of Other Causes;
§: the 2 relapses occurred in the same patient;
+: the external frontal sinusotomy was realised via an eyebrow incision;
*: frontal sinus and frontal recess are considered altogether;
#: 1 relapse in frontal sinus originally involved only the ethmoid, 2 patients recurred twice each after endoscopic and external approach (not furtherly specified);
°: 2 out of 3 cases were in fact persistence: a staged OPF was performed because of suspicious partial resection after endoscopic approach, confirmed by pathology.
