Do Anatomical Variations Affect the Location of Solitary Sphenoid Sinus Fungal Balls? A 10-Year Retrospective Study [PDF]
Journal of RhinologyBackground and Objectives Sinonasal fungal balls (FBs) most commonly occur in the maxillary sinus, followed by the sphenoid sinus (SS). Relatively little is known about the predisposing factors and pathogenesis of unilateral sphenoid sinus fungal balls ...

Ethmoid pneumatization and a large frontal-orbital-ethmoid mucocele
, 2019 Frontal-orbital-ethmoid mucocele is a slow-growing retention cyst of the fronto-ethmoid complex secondary to blockage of the sinus ostia. It may produce significant disfigurement of the periorbital region necessitating surgical intervention.

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2018 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nasal septum deviation (NSD) is one of the leading causes of chronic otitis media and pneumatization of mastoid air cells. In this study, the effect of NSD on pneumatization of mastoid cells and the relationship between NSD and ...

Role of Mastoid Pneumatization in Temporal Bone Fractures [PDF]
, 2020 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The mastoid portion of the temporal bone has multiple functional roles in the organism, including regulation of pressure in the middle ear and protection of the inner ear.
