Background Acute and Chronic Rhinosinusitis (ARS/CRS) have a strong healtheconomic impact. It can be assumed that 10-15% of the US and EU population suffers from CRS. The success of topical drug delivery to the sinuses principally desirable is limited because the paranasal cavities are virtually non-ventilated areas. An innovative inhalation system (PARI SINUS) which provides a pulsating aeroso...

BACKGROUND Sinusitis is a common disease in the horse. In human medicine it is described, that obstruction of the sinonasal communication plays a major role in the development of sinusitis. To get spatial sense of the equine specific communication ways between the nasal cavity and the paranasal sinuses, heads of 19 horses, aged 2 to 26 years, were analyzed using three-dimensional (3D) reformatt...

Cholesterol granuloma (CG) is usually associated with chronic middle ear disease, and is not common in the paranasal sinuses. Additionally, it is very rare for cases of CG to be associated with a fungal infection. However, in this paper, we report a case of sphenoid sinus CG that is associated with aspergilloma in a 78-year-old male patient who presented with right hemifacial pain, headache and...

SETTING A tertiary referral cancer center. PATIENTS The study included 208 patients with cancer of the paranasal sinuses. Patients with brain invasion or neurogenic tumors were excluded.

Background This study aimed to present the correlation between headaches and anatomical changes within nasal cavity paranasal sinuses. Material methods: includes a literature search our observations of 24 patients regarding with sinus anatomy.

Endoscopic sinus surgery is a standard procedure in the treatment of various pathologies such as chronic sinusitis or some types of neoplasms. The transnasal approach to tumours of paranasal sinuses is favourable due to functional and aesthetic reasons. We report a rare case of a large primary ectopic meningioma of the paranasal sinuses in a 48-year-old woman referred to the Otolaryngology Clin...

BACKGROUND Our understanding of the resident microbiome of the paranasal sinuses has changed considerably in recent years. Once presumed to be sterile, healthy sinus cavities are now known to harbor a diverse assemblage of microorganisms, and, it is hypothesized that alterations in the kinds and quantities of these microbes may play a role in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). ...
