## Indications for use
The VenSure™ Balloon Device and VenSure™ Nav Balloon Device are used to access and treat the frontal recesses, sphenoid sinus ostia and maxillary ostia/ethmoid infundibula in adults using a trans-nasal approach. The bony sinus outflow tracts are remodeled by balloon displacement of adjacent bone and paranasal sinus structures. The VenSure™ Nav Balloon Device is intended for use in conjunction with the Fiagon Navigation System during sinus procedures when surgical navigation or image-guided surgery may be necessary to locate and move tissue, bone or cartilaginous tissue surrounding the drainage pathways of frontal, maxillary, and sphenoid sinuses to facilitate dilation of the sinus ostia. The Fiagon Navigation System is intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. The Fiagon Navigation system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure in the field of ENT surgery can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model of the anatomy.
