Isolated sphenoid sinus disease

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2004
Disease of the sphenoid sinus is often vague and nonspecific in its clinical presentation. Therefore, the otolaryngologist must maintain a high index of suspicion when evaluating patients who present with such nonspecific symptoms. A thorough understanding of the radiologic characteristics of sphenoid sinus disease is essential in the proper evaluation

The sphenoid sinus mucocoele

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1981
SummaryMucocoeles, mucopyocoeles and empyemas of the sphenoid sinus are rare, but potentially dangerous. Their occurrence is accompanied by a multitude of clinical symptoms and signs, which confuse the diagnosis and may lead to its mismanagement. The treatment of this condition is surgical and in its early states essentially simple.At Groote Schuur ...

Sphenoid Sinus Mucocele

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1989
Sphenoid sinus mucocele is a rare entity that can occur alone or as a result of ethmoid sinusitis and polyposis. A myriad of presentations is possible due to the presence of important contiguous neurologic and vascular structures. Past surgical approaches to the sphenoid sinus have problems associated with them.

Sphenoid Sinus Fungal Balls

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2007
Objectives: We sought to examine the nature of fungal balls of the sphenoid sinus, in particular the exposure of adjacent skull base structures and the potential for surgical morbidity. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our series of 17 cases of sphenoid sinus fungal balls seen between 1998 and 2005 with reference to their diagnosis, radiologic ...

Isolated Sphenoid Sinus Lesions

American Journal of Rhinology, 2000
Pathologic conditions involving the sphenoid sinus alone are rare. A retrospective chart review was performed of 182 cases of isolated sphenoid sinus lesions seen at the Mayo Clinic between 1935 and 1998. There were 53 cases of sinusitis, 44 mucoceles, and 15 fungus-related cases (61.5%), and the rest of the cases were divided among numerous other ...

Sphenoid Sinus Mucocele

Archives of Neurology, 1984
Sphenoid sinus mucocele is a rare occurrence. Since the original description by Berg in 1889,181 cases had been reported worldwide in the literature by 1970. Etiology is controversial. Hypotheses have been advanced of slow and progressive accumulation of secretions due to obstruction of the draining ostium caused by chronic sinusitis,1,2-4cystic ...

Paranasal sinus radiology, part 3B: Sphenoidal sinus

Head & Neck Surgery, 1982
AbstractMucoceles involving the sphenoidal sinus are not as common as those affecting the frontal and ethmoidal sinuses. The subtle expansile change produced by a sphenoidal sinus mucocele often requires conventional tomography or computed tomography examination to be detected.

The sphenoid sinus

1997
In most cases, the sphenoid sinus is the most posterior of the paranasal sinuses. It drains directly into the nasal cavity by an ostium in its anterior-superior medial aspect, emptying into the sphenoethmoid recess. It is located by the endoscopist by following the line from the nasal spine to the superior meatus and tracking along the posterior one ...

The Sphenoid Sinus

2009
■ The sphenoid sinus, known in the past as the “neglected sinus” [30], has attracted growing attention over the past 10 years due to the development of diagnostic techniques, the innovation of selective endonasal endoscopic approaches to the sinus itself and to the latest advancement in surgery, which foresees using the sphenoid sinus as the gateway to
