Anatomical studies found in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) an optimal resource for the three-dimensional (3D) assessment of head and neck. When it comes to maxillary sinuses, CBCT enables a life-size reliable volumetric analysis. This study aimed assess age sex-related changes sinuses using The sample consisted scans 112 male (n = 57) female 55) individuals (224 sinuses) distributed 5 cat...

An 8-year-old female with a history of chronic headaches and uncertain papilloedema was found to have a variant of the posterior intracranial dural venous sinuses on magnetic resonance imaging assessment of the brain. Magnetic resonance venography included in the imaging revealed a circular formation of the confluence of sinuses and absent right-sided transverse sinus. The confluence of sinuses...

IgG4RSD affecting the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is extremely rare. A 71-year-old man presented with an invasive mass in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses that was confirmed by immunostaining to be IgG4RSD. The occurrence of this disease in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses can resemble a malignant tumor on diagnostic imaging.

INTRODUCTION The proximity of the roots to the maxillary sinus can create a variety of risks. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between the roots of healthy teeth and the maxillary sinus, as well as the occurrence of sinus pathologies. METHODS Three radiologists analyzed 109 cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. The Kappa test was used to assess the intra- and inter-rater agreem...

Frontal sinuses in goats and other mammals have been hypothesized to function as shock absorbers, protecting the brain from blows during intraspecific combat. Furthermore, sinuses are thought to form through removal of ;structurally unnecessary' bone. These hypotheses were tested using finite element modeling. Three-dimensional models of domesticated goat (Capra hircus) skulls were constructed,...

conclusions surgeons should consider the possibility of existence of other mucoceles when they find a large downstream sinus mucocele obstructing the ostia of upstream sinuses on computed tomography scans. introduction mucoceles of the paranasal sinuses are relatively rare. a very busy otolaryngology department does not have more than a few cases each year. bilateral, multiple, and multiloculat...

metastatic   tumors in the nose and paranasal sinuses are infrequent. the origin of this metastatic tumors are often renal cell carcinoma. we present one case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma   to the nose and paranasal sinuses ,4 years after initial nephrectomy and diagnosis of stage t1n0m0 clear cell carcinoma. the patient complained of nasal obstruction and recurrent epistaxis   who was tr...

BACKGROUND We have previously proposed the use of Doppler ultrasound to non-invasively stage sinus infection, as we showed that acoustic streaming could be generated in nonpurulent sinus secretions and helped to distinguish it from mucopurulent sinus secretions. In order to continue this development of a clinically applicable Doppler equipment, we need to determine different dimensions of the p...

A unilateral tumour in the nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses is commonly caused by polyps, cysts, and mucoceles, as well as invasive tumours such as papillomas and squamous cell carcinomas. Schwannomas, in contrast, are rare lesions in this area (Minhas et al., 2013). We present a case of a 52-year-old female who presented with a 4-year progressive history of mucous hypersecretion, nasal obstru...

BackgroundThe coexistence of falcine and occipital sinuses is rare its natural course has not been reported.Case reportsTwo patients with persistent are described. Both had straight sinuses. In one, both the transverse sigmoid were hypoplastic patient an acquired Chiari I malformation. The other no venous anomalies a normal posterior cranial fossa.ConclusionThe can lead to These cases suggest i...
