 Objective: To simulate airflow in nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses after remodeling of uncinate process, based on the computational aerodynamics method.

Material and methods: 19 patients with chronic purulent maxillary sinusitis underwent remodeling of the uncinate process and CFD – aerodynamic modeling.

Results: CFD-modeling of aerodynamics proved the reduction of pathological air exchange between the maxillary sinus and the nasal cavity after remodeling the uncinate process.

Key words:  uncinate process (UP), maxillary sinus cavity.
