Objective-  to provide a reference anatomy of the paranasal sinuses of the goat by using computed tomographic modality. Design- Experimented study.   Animals- Five male Rayini goats.   Procedures- CT images were acquired from the head region perpendicular to the hard palate. CT windows were adjusted as necessary to  obtain the optimal image for the paranasal sinuses. The images were studie...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Little information is available regarding the anatomy of the intracranial veins and sinuses that can be shown on MR venograms of children. The aim of this study was to determine the normal venous anatomy and anatomic variants. METHODS Fifty children who were referred for investigation of developmental delay and who had normal results of MR imaging of the brain were recr...

A paranasal sinus mucocele is an epithelial-lined, mucus-containing sac that completely fills the and forms expandable cystic structure. It most commonly affects frontal ethmoidal sinuses, rarely maxillary sphenoid sinuses. Orbital displacement or external disfigurement resulting from expansion of ethmoid sinuses common; however, facial asymmetry caused by bone remodeling rare. We describe a ca...

The 2- and 3-dimensional (3D) anatomy and the morphometric properties of the paranasal sinuses of the foal have received little or no attention in the literature. The aim of this study was to obtain details of the paranasal sinuses using multiplane CT imaging to create 3D models and to determine morphological and morphometric data for the sinuses using the 3D models. The heads of five female fo...

Topical drug delivery to poorly ventilated paranasal sinuses is challenging. Pulsating aerosols can improve the deposition of drugs like cortisol in sinuses. The current study compares effect Budesonid administered as pulsating aerosol comparison conventional nasal spray

  Background and Objective: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common chronic diseases. In the past decades, there has been an increase in fungal infections of sinuses and fungal rhinosinusitis (FRS) has been diagnosed more frequently. Knowing the fungal flora and its prevalence in CRS patients will allow a better understanding of this disease, permitting a correct diagnosis, trea...

BACKGROUND Congenital dermal sinuses represent cutaneous depressions or tracts that are lined by stratified squamous epithelium. They communicate between the surface of the skin and deeper structures and may occur anywhere along the craniospinal axis. These sinuses are thought to result from abnormal separation of the cutaneous and neural ectoderm between the third and fifth week of intrauterin...

Agenesis of the paranasal sinuses is an uncommon clinical condition that appears mainly in the frontal (12%) and maxillary (5-6%) sinuses; in some populations, it appears at a higher proportion. This study investigated the prevalence of agenesis of the frontal sinuses using dental volumetric tomography (DVT) in Turkish individuals. The frontal sinuses of 410 patients were examined by DVT scans ...

The characteristics of the paranasal sinuses (maxillary, frontal, sphenoid and ethmoid sinuses) are information great relevance to Forensic Sciences, as their images can be used for human identification purposes. Due particularities, provide valuable identification, reducing risk errors during investigation by experts. Such structures visualized from several imaging exams. This study evaluates ...
