Anatomical Variations of the Middle Turbinate Concha Bullosa and its Relationship with Chronic Sinusitis: A Prospective Radiologic Study [PDF]
International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2018 Introduction A pneumatized turbinate, also called concha bullosa, is a normal anatomical variant of the paranasal sinus region. Depending on the site of pneumatization, the concha is classified into extensive, bulbous or lamellar type.

Infected Concha Bullosa with Fungus. [PDF]
Iran J Otorhinolaryngol, 2019 Concha bullosa is the most common variation of the middle turbinate of the paranasal sinuses. When it causes nasal obstruction, osteomeatal unit dysfunction, or rarely chronic infection, surgery is required.We present a fungal infection of concha bullosa, which is a rare indication for surgery of the concha bullosa.
