Salman FES Stent used for? How many per box?
1 stent per box septum splint The Salman FES Stent is designed to help prevent potential complications resulting from functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FES). The stent has an oval-shaped base that may be trimmed for different anatomies and is designed to fit between the middle turbinate and lateral nasal wall. The two “fingers“ arising from the base are introduced into the maxillary sinus through the middle meatal antrostomy. These “fingers“ will prevent dislodgment of the stent, thus eliminating the need for any suturing.
