    surgical procedure name - HELP!

    Sounds like "well luck" and according to lay witness surgeon goes up underneath the lip and makes an incision, cuts the face away

    from the skull, and goes back in to the cheek bone and cleans the blood and debris from the sinus.   Any thing that sounds close?

     

    Thanks,  Cindy

    Hi, Cindy,

     It's "Caldwell-Luc,"  a surgical procedure where the maxillary sinus is entered by making an opening under the upper lip above the teeth.

    Hope this helps.
