Endoscopic endonasal management of recurrent petrous apex cholesterol granuloma. [PDF]
Petrous apex cholesterol granulomas (PACG) are uncommon lesions. Recurrence following transcranial or endonasal approaches to aerate the cyst occurs in up to 60% of cases. We describe the technical nuances pertinent to the endonasal endoscopic management

Optimum imaging and diagnosis of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhoea [PDF]
Imaging is an important component in the investigation of unilateral watery rhinorrhoea suspicious of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Whilst the demonstration of the presence of beta 2 transferrin confirms that CSF is present it may prove difficult to ...
