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.

Cranial nerve VI palsy in chronic sphenoid sinusitis

BMJ Case Reports, 2023
Sphenoid sinusitis is a rare disease associated with life-threatening complications that can be avoided with early recognition and timely treatment. Here, we present a case of a woman in her 80s admitted for symptomatic anaemia likely secondary to a gastrointestinal bleed with left cranial nerve (CN) VI palsy incidentally discovered on physical ...

CARCINOMA OF THE SPHENOID SINUSES WITH INVASION OF THE CRANIAL CAVITY [PDF]

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1931
Carcinoma of the sphenoid sinuses is rare. A careful search of the literature shows only two cases of malignant disease of the sphenoid sinuses, which were recorded by White1among 125 patients with retrobulbar neuritis. The diagnosis of malignancy was made on biopsy material.

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 ...

Intradural cranial congenital dermal sinuses: diagnosis and management

Child's Nervous System, 2005
The congenital dermal sinus (CDS) is a benign tumor-like entity that has unique anatomical and clinical features. We retrospectively examined our data to determine factors associated with adverse outcomes for cranial-based dermal sinuses.We retrospectively examined our data obtained from patients presenting between 1975 and 2002.

Congenital cranial and spinal dermal sinuses: A report of 3 cases [PDF]

Advances in Therapy, 2006
Three cases of congenital dermal sinus are presented--2 female and 1 male. Frontal, thoracic, and lumbosacral congenital dermal sinuses were explored. All patients presented with skin findings, but no neurologic deficits. The case with frontal localization was associated with a corpus callosum lipoma and dermoid tumor, and the patient presented with ...

Variation in the pattern of cranial venous sinuses and hominid phylogeny

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1984
AbstractIn 1967 Tobias noted that Australopithecus boisei cranium O.H.5 exhibited a cranial venous sinus pattern in which the occipital sinus and the marginal sinuses of the foramen magnum appeared to have replaced the transverse‐sigmoid sinuses as the major venous outflow track. Specimens of A. robustus and several more recently recovered A.
