Orbital Decompression into the Ethmoid and Maxillary Sinuses

Combined Aplasia of Sphenoid, Frontal, and Maxillary Sinuses With Hypoplasia of The Ethmoid Sinus

which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Paranasal sinuses are prone to a great diversity of anomalies. Aplasia of the frontal sinus is a relatively common phenomenon and may be accompanied with hypoplasia of the maxillary sinus, but combined aplasia or underde-velopment of the paranasal sinuses is unusual (1, 2)...

Bilateral Inverted Papilloma of Maxillary and Ethmoid Sinuses with Multiple Recurrences

Inverted papilloma (IP) or Shneiderian papilloma is a benign neoplasm of the sinonasal cavity that is hallmarked by its locally invasiveness, tendency for recurrence and malignant transformation. They arise from the ectodermally derived Scheiderian mucosa that lines the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Predominantly observed in males in their fifth and sixth decade of life, it has an annual ...

Antibiotic sensitivities of Streptococcus pneumoniae, viridans streptococci, and group A hemolytic streptococci isolated from the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses.

OBJECTIVES To investigate antibiotic sensitivities of Streptococcus pneumoniae, viridans streptococci, and group A hemolytic streptococci isolated from the culture materials obtained from the sinuses of patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery due to chronic sinusitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS We recruited 93 patients (63 males, 30 females; mean age 36+/-17.5; range 19 to 68 years)...

Microbiology of the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis submitted to functional endoscopic sinus surgery.

UNLABELLED Chronic rhinosinusitis microbiology studies show the presence of aerobe and anaerobe microorganisms, fungus and virus and their incidence vary according to each study. These studies guide us on choosing the most adequate antimicrobial agent to eliminate the infectious process, thus, helping in restoring rhinosinusal mucosa. STUDY DESIGN Clinical prospective. AIM This work aimed a...
