The Comparison of Piriform Aperture, Paranasal Sinuses, and Cranial Dimensions

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2021
Objective: Piriform aperture, paranasal sinuses, and the cranium dimensions were compared with each other and we investigated the alterations depending on the age and gender in these structures. Before the endoscopic sinus surgery, anatomic variations in sinusoidal region and the occurring differences should be considered.

Allergic fungal sinusitis with cranial base erosion

Head & Neck, 1996
Allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) usually follows a slow, nonaggressive course. However, massive bone destruction can occur, with extension of the disease process outside of the confines of the sinuses.Our series of 28 cases of AFS was reviewed. We identified 6 cases of AFS with definite radiographic evidence of skull base erosion.Histologic diagnostic ...

Cranial Base and Paranasal Sinuses

2001
The ethmoidal cells seldom remain contained within the interorbital space. The frontal sinus ex pands naturally to the interior of the frontal bone, including the interior of its orbital plates. Howev er, the anterior ethmoidal cells do the same, com peting for space with the frontal sinus.

CRANIAL VENOUS SINUSES

Archives of Surgery, 1938
It has been demonstrated previously that roentgenographic evidence of the relative volumes of the lateral sinuses corresponds to comparative anatomic evidence of the bony markings on the occipital bone.1The value of a clinical method for the demonstration of comparative volumes of the lateral sinuses has been briefly discussed in the presentation of ...

CRANIAL VENOUS SINUSES

Archives of Surgery, 1936
In a previous communication 1 one of us (B. W.) has described the normal anatomic variations in the cranial venous sinus patterns, particularly in the region of the torcular Herophili. As a part of that study, it was noted that the markings on the occipital bone closely corresponded to the differences in the volume of the lateral sinuses and followed ...

Schwannoma of the anterior cranial fossa and paranasal sinuses

British Journal of Neurosurgery, 1993
Only two cases of schwannomas involving the anterior cranial fossa and paranasal sinuses or nasal fossa have been reported previously. We describe a third case which involved all of these structures and also the left orbit.

Cranial complications of frontal sinusitis.

American family physician, 1980
Complications of frontal sinusitis are potentially serious. The best prevention is adequate antibiotic treatment of acute sinusitis or of the acute exacerbation of chronic sinusitis. Intracranial complications include extradural, subdural and brain abscesses, meningitis and cavernous sinus thrombophlebitis.

ANATOMIC VARIATIONS OF THE CRANIAL VENOUS SINUSES

Archives of Neurology & Psychiatry, 1931
When one compresses the internal jugular veins, the obstruction to the outflow of the cranial circulation is reflected in a rise of the cerebrospinal fluid pressure. This principle is the basis of the Queckenstedt test,1in which the rise of spinal fluid pressure, noted by means of a manometer attached to the lumbar puncture needle, denotes the patency,

CRANIAL AND INTRACRANIAL COMPLICATIONS OF ACUTE FRONTAL SINUSITIS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1940
The most common complications of acute frontal sinusitis, particularly that which follows swimming, are abscess of the frontal lobe and osteomyelitis of the frontal bone. 1 Within recent years the rhinologists and neurosurgeons have adopted more or less successful methods of dealing with these complications. Nevertheless the problems presented by these

Adult Cranial Dura II: Venous Sinuses and Their Extrameningeal Contributions

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 2003
This is the second of two articles designed to provide detailed user-friendly schematics of the adult dural vascular anatomy. It supplements the first article on the intrinsic meningeal arteries and veins by describing the dural venous sinuses along with their three remaining connections: to the brain, to the diploë, and to the extracranial soft ...
