Minimising aerosol spread during endoscopic sinus and skull base surgery. Experimental model evaluation of the efficacy of the microscope drape method.

It potentially allows faster operating theatre turnover and more liberal use of powered instruments during endonasal surgery. PMID: 32921336 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
