Micro and nanoparticle deposition in human nasal passage pre and post virtual maxillary sinus endoscopic surgery

Highlights ► The maxillary sinus ventilation changes significantly after uncinectomy and MMA. ► Removal of the uncinate process and MMA increase the number of inhaled micro-particles into the maxillary sinus by 10-fold. ► The uncinectomy and MMA operation leads to a significant increase in the nano-...
