Occurrence of benign tumors of the paranasal sinuses by computed tomography study in Karnataka

Journal Title: Journal of Drug Discovery and Therapeutics - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Diseases of the paranasal sinuses widespread, includes inflammation to neoplasms. These are in close anatomical relationship with head and neck viscera. Hence involvement of these viscera is an important feature. Since clinical assessment is hampered by the surrounding bony structures, diagnostic radiology is of paramount importance. While conventional plain radiography is inaccurate and inadequate in the diagnosis of non-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions. CT imaging provides detailed information of the paranasal sinuses and is now well established as an alternative to standard radiographs. This study is also aimed at helping the otolaryngologist in deciding the management and surgical approach during FESS, thereby reducing the surgical complications.
