This disclosure describes various sinus scaffolds having fiber-based and non-fiber based designs, materials, devices, kits and methods that may be used to treat chronic sinusitis. These designs vary in form, dimension, and delivery location (i.e. maxillary, frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoidal sinuses, and middle meatus). In addition therapeutic agent(s) may optionally be included within the scaffolds for local delivery over a brief or extended period of time.
