The temporal association of sphenoid sinus mucosal thickening on MR imaging with pituitary apoplexy.
AIM Pituitary apoplexy is an infrequent but potentially devastating complication in patients with pituitary adenomas. Previous studies have cited an association between MR visualized sphenoid sinus mucosal thickening and apoplexy. However, uncertainties still remain on the significance and temporal association of this finding with pituitary apoplexy. We provide a clinical study that better deli...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Association of Sinus Mucosal Thickening with Dental and Periodontal Status Using Cone Beam Computed Tomographic Imaging
Introdouction: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a relatively new three-dimensional imaging technology, which has been widely used in dental and maxillofacial imaging. Materials and methods: CBCT scans of 506 maxillary sinuses of 253 individuals (39.9% male and 60.1% female) were evaluated retrospectively for assessing the relationship between sinus mucosal thickening (MT) and dental a...
متن کاملPituitary apoplexy: early detection with diffusion-weighted MR imaging.
Pituitary apoplexy is defined as a clinical syndrome that may include headache, visual deficits, ophthalmoplegia, or altered mental status. It may result from either infarction or hemorrhage of the pituitary gland. Prognosis is significantly improved with early diagnosis and surgical treatment. We report two cases in which diffusion-weighted MR imaging assisted in the early detection of acute p...

متن کاملMR imaging of mucoceles of the sphenoid sinus.
Mucocele of the sphenoid sinus is a rare disorder [1-3]. Its clinical manifestations are varied, primarily reflecting the intimate anatomic relationships between the sphenoid sinus and cranial nerves 11-VI, the cavernous sinus, internal carotid arteries, pituitary gland, and optic chiasm [2, 4-8]. Two patients presenting with cranial nerve deficits were evaluated with CT and MR imaging. CT show...
