Revolutionizing Sinus Surgery: The Centripetal Technique

By Alexandre Felippu

The ethmoid sinus is the most anatomically and functionally important structure in the paranasal sinuses, making ethmoidectomy the most significant act in the surgical treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. The current surgical techniques, including Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) and more radical approaches, are similar and always performed by centrifugal resection, removing cell by cell from the complex and variable anatomy of the ethmoid sinus. This book introduces the Centripetal Technique, which changes the concept of consecutive cell resection to a new concept of primary dissection of the ethmoid sinus boundaries, reducing risks and improving outcomes.

This book is aimed at otorhinolaryngologists, from beginners to the most experienced, presenting a technique that has been used, refined, and taught by the Felippu Institute for over 40 years.
