Imaging for endoscopic sinus surgery in adults [PDF]
Computerized tomography (CT) offers the gold standard in terms of imaging the extent of disease and the fine detailed anatomy, both pre-requisites to the safe practice of endoscopic sinus surgery. Neither plain X-rays nor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

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

Unusual large central sphenoethmoidal cell separating the two sphenoid sinuses - A case report
Background: The preoperative study of the sphenoid sinus and sphenoethmoidal cells is fundamental for successful surgery and complication avoidance. Sphenoethmoidal cells are those cells that extend superolaterally into the ipsilateral sphenoid sinus ...

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 ...

Sphenoid sinus revisited [PDF]
AbstractJ. H. Maxwell, M.D., in 1959 presented a paper on, “The Diagnosis of Chronic Inflammatory Lesions of the Sphenoid Sinus.” In that paper he reviewed chronic inflammatory lesions of the sphenoid sinus and demonstrated through means of case presentations various techniques required for proper diagnosis.

Pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus, dorsum sellae and posterior clinoid processes in computed tomography [PDF]
Purpose: Assessment of sphenoid sinus (SS), posterior clinoid process (PCP), and dorsum sellae (DS) pneumatisation is significant when planning surgical approaches both to intra- and extrasellar pathologies. The authors analysed pneumatisation of the SS,

Unilateral abducens nerve palsy: A presenting sign of sphenoid sinus mucocoeles [PDF]
Sphenoid sinus mucocoeles can stimulate a variety of pathological conditions and patients can present to a range of specialists. Because of the relative rarity of sphenoid sinus mucocoeles, diagnosis is often delayed and these lesions can progressively ...

Relationships of sphenoid sinus pneumatization with internal carotid artery characteristics.
ObjectiveWe explored the clinical significances of the relationships among sphenoid sinus aeration, intersphenoid sinus septum (ISS), and internal carotid artery (ICA).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the preoperative paranasal sinus computed ...
