Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The direct and indirect costs of treatment of frontal and other sinus disease with Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery or balloon sinuplasty.
6 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Health outcome of patients in the two treatment groups.
6 months
Effectiveness of the two treatment groups in relieving symptomology of CRS.

Study Arms (2)
Balloon Sinuplasty™ System
ACTIVE COMPARATORFunctional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
Catheter-based devices used to dilate blocked paranasal sinus ostia (openings).
Specialized probes are used to cannulate closed ostia (openings), and small forceps are used to resect periostial bone and tissue to enlarge the sinus ostia.
