This paper reports a case of septic cavernous sinus thrombosis following a chronic ear infection and paranasal sinusitis. The diagnosis and management of this condition are discussed.

Topical drug delivery to poorly ventilated paranasal sinuses is challenging. Pulsating aerosols can improve the deposition of drugs like cortisol in sinuses. The current study compares effect Budesonid administered as pulsating aerosol comparison conventional nasal spray

Paranasal sinus mucoceles are benign, locally expansile cyst-like masses that are filled with mucus and lined with epithelium. Most occur in the frontal sinus. Maxillary sinus mucoceles are presumably uncommon in the United States and European countries, although they have been frequently reported in Japan, particularly following Caldwell-Luc surgery. Clinical symptoms may not appear for at lea...

Kapossiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) of the paranasal sins (PNS) is a rare cause of recurrent epistaxis. To date, only two cases of PNS KHE have been reported in the literature, both occurring in the pediatric population. The case presented here appears to be the first case of PNS KHE occurring in an adult. A 46-year-old white female presented with progressively worsening unilateral recurrent...
