The osteomas are osseous lesions with slow and asymptomatic growth that mostof the times isafinding inradiologicalexamsrequested forother reason.

The osteomas are located mainly in the frontal sinus (37–80%), followed by the ethmoidal sinuses (20%),maxillarysinusesandrarely in thesphenoidsinus. Although osteoid osteoma is rare in paranasal sinuses, it should be considered if there is a bone density mass and complete excision should be performed with care.

Experimental data have been advanced favouring each hypothesis, and it is in fact...
