Disorders of the Paranasal Sinuses

Inflammation of the equine paranasal sinuses is a relatively uncommon disease that may be caused by primary bacterial or mycotic infections (Mason 1975a), or can be secondary to dental disease (van der Velden & Verzijlenberg 1984, Scott 1987, Tremaine & Dixon 2001a), facial trauma, sinus cysts, progressive ethmoid hematoma or sinonasal neoplasia (Mansmann & Wheat 1973, Gibbs & Lane 1987, Tremai...

Actinomycosis of the paranasal sinuses.

Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurating granulomatous disorder specific to soft tissue. It is produced by Actinomyces Israelii, gram positive anaerobic bacteria that are very difficult to culture, and a commensal saprophyte of the oral cavity (tonsillar crypts, saliva and gingival dental sulci) and the gastro-intestinal tract; it becomes a pathogen in the face of erosions of the oropharyngeal mu...

[Aspergillosis of the nose and paranasal sinuses].

Aspergillosis is becoming an increasingly recognized pathogen in the sinonasal tract. The courses of two patients, one seemingly healthy and one with a terminal malignancy, are reviewed. These patients illustrate the clinical course, difficulties in diagnosis, and management of patients with aspergillosis of the sinonasal tract. Aspergillus is a common endogenous contaminant of the upper respir...
