Role of mastoid pneumatization in temporal bone fractures.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The mastoid portion of the temporal bone has multiple functional roles in the organism, including regulation of pressure in the middle ear and protection of the inner ear. We investigated whether mastoid pneumatization plays a role in the protection of vital structures in the temporal bone during direct lateral trauma. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was performed on 20 ...
متن کاملTemporal bone pneumatization in cystic fibrosis: a correlation with genotype?
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Paranasal sinus pneumatization in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is less extensive compared to the general population and seems to be correlated to CF genotype. Interestingly, in CF patients temporal bone pneumatization (TBP) is more extensive compared to the general population, and middle ear pathology is generally uncommon in CF. It is debated whether TBP is influenc...
متن کاملAsymmetric temporal bone pneumatization: an MR imaging pitfall.
A healthy 44-year-old woman was evaluated neurologically because she had had dizziness without vertigo and right facial pain for several months. The pain was not typical for trigeminal neuralgia, and she had had no loss of hearing. Physical examination showed no abnormalities. Cranial MR imaging was ordered for evaluation of the cerebellopontine angle. Axial MR images showed apparently normal e...
متن کاملExtensive craniocervical bone pneumatization.
We report a case of extensive abnormal craniocervical bone pneumatization accidentally found in a patient without any history of trauma or surgery. The patient had only mild unspecific thoracic pain and bilateral paresthesia that did not correlate with computed tomography findings.
متن کاملComparison of Preoperative Temporal Bone CT with Intraoperative Findings in Patients with Cholesteatoma
Introduction: Cholesteatoma is traditionally diagnosed by otoscopic examination and treated by surgery. The necessity for imaging in an uncomplicated case is controversial. This study was planned to investigate the usefulness of a preoperative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan in depicting the status of middle ear structures in the presence of cholesteatoma and also to compare the...
