Abstract

A 36-year-old male patient with primary CRS with nasal polyposis was listed for FESS-polypectomy. Prior to surgery, the patient had a CT scan of his sinuses to aid planning. FESS was carried out by a trainee under senior supervision. While performing a right middle meatal antrostomy and anterior ethmoidectomy, fat was seen prolapsing in the nasal cavity after injuring and penetrating the lamina papyracea. Immediately, the senior surgeon took over and continued with the operation. The eye was checked and instrumentation with powered instruments was avoided. Further surgery in this area was abandoned. Postoperatively, the situation was explained to the patient and he had an uneventful recovery.
