Bony Changes in a Unilateral Maxillary Sinus Fungal Ball
OBJECTIVES In the paranasal sinus fungal ball (SFB), changes that occur in the underlying bone have not been well described. Recently, bacterial coinfection has been reported in patients with paranasal SFB. We evaluated whether bone changes occur in patients with unilateral maxillary SFB, and also how bacteria in an SFB affect the bony wall of the sinus. METHODS A retrospective study of patie...
متن کاملCalcified mucor fungus ball of the maxillary sinus.
Functional electric stimulation is a new method for dynamic rehabilitation of paralyzed muscles. The output of such prosthetic devices needs to be modulated by some index of the muscle movement. In facial paralysis a measure of the muscle contractions of the normal contralateral side seems to be an appropriate input. In the rabbit, we simultaneously measured the compound action potential of the...
متن کاملSeptal deviation is associated with maxillary sinus fungus ball in male patients.
Fungus is one of the causes of chronic rhinosinusitis. If the fungus occupies the sinus but does not invade the sinonasal mucosa, this is called sinus fungus ball. Any association between anatomical variations and fungus ball remains unclear. Sinus fungus ball is defined as non-invasive chronic fungal rhinosinusitis occurring in immunocompetent patients, and the maxillary sinus is the most comm...
متن کاملAcute sinusitis mimicking antrochoanal polyp.
Three cases of antral sinusitis that presented in an unusual fashion are reported. In each case, the inflamed, swollen sinus mucosa became redundant and prolapsed into the nasal cavity through a widened sinus ostium, mimicking the findings of an antrochoanal polyp. The cases represent the first report in the radiographic literature of this unusual manifestation of maxillary sinusitis.
متن کاملThe Review of 21 Patients with Antrochoanal Polyp Patients with Antrochoanal Polyp
Antrochoanal polyps (APs) are benign lesions originating from the mucosa of the maxillary sinus and capable of extending to the choana and nasopharynx [1]. Although the first case was reported by Palfyn in 1753, it was first described in detail by Killian [2,3]. APs constitute 4-6% of adult polyps and 33% of childhood polyps. The most common symptom is unilateral nasal obstruction. Other sympto...
