Assessment of sphenoid sinus related anatomic variations with computed tomography
INTRODUCTION Frequent and broad application of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) in parallel with experience makes it imperative to know the anatomy and the existing pathology very well before surgery. This study examines the association between anomalies in the sphenoid sinus area in paranasal sinuses computed tomography (PNS-CT) and pathological findings and determines variations of sphenoid sin...
متن کاملAnatomic variations of sphenoid sinus from Cone Beam Computed Tomography images in the Iranian population
Aims: Sphenoid sinus is one of the most inaccessible paranasal sinus, and is closely correlated to many vascular and neural structures. Anatomic variation of the sphenoid sinus can complicate surgery in this area. The aim of the present investigation was to define the sphenoid sinus variations and the relevant structures using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: This cross-sectiona...
متن کاملNormal Variations of Sphenoid Sinus and the Adjacent Structures Detected in Cone Beam Computed Tomography.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM The sphenoid sinus is a common target of paranasal surgery. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is likely to endanger the anatomic variations of vital structures adjacent to the sphenoid sinus. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the variations of sphenoid sinus and the related structures by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHOD...
متن کاملSphenoid Sinus: Anatomic Variations and Their Importance in Trans-sphenoid Surgery
Background: Over the past decades, instruments and techniques of the transsphenoidal approach have improved greatly. All of these procedures, whether microscopic or endoscopic, must pass through the sphenoid sinus to reach the lesions. The sphenoid sinus is surrounded by several vital anatomical structures. Knowing the details of the anatomy of the sphenoid sinus and the extent of pneumatizatio...
متن کاملVariations in sphenoid sinus anatomy with special emphasis on pneumatization and endoscopic anatomic distances.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to present the morphometry and pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus in detail for the neurosurgeon for transnasal approach to the hypophyseal tumors and especially for functional endoscopic sinus surgery. METHODS One hundred and eighty midsagittal magnetic resonance images, 48 bones and 29 hemi-sectioned cadaveric heads obtained from Ege University, Fac...
