Abstract
This disclosure describes, inter alia, materials, devices, kits and methods that may be used to treat chronic sinusitis. The present disclosure describes various sinus scaffolds having fiber-based and non-fiber-based designs. These designs vary in form, dimension, and delivery location. In addition, therapeutic agent(s) may optionally be included within the scaffolds for local delivery over a brief or extended period of time. Therefore, these scaffolds may be used to improve sinus patency, for example, in surgically modified sinus spaces or in sinus spaces that have not previously undergone surgical modification. Moreover, these scaffolds may be used to deliver local therapeutic agent(s) to such sinus spaces, including, for instance, as part of a treatment program that is an alternative to sinus surgery (e.g., FESS) or in other instances as part of a postoperative care of FESS in some embodiments.
