Posttraumatic Anosmia Secondary to Cranial Base Contusion
Journal Title: Imaging Journal of Clinical and Medical Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Head trauma is a common cause of anosmia; however, the diagnosis is typically late, owing to greater attention being given to the more life-threatening sequelae of the injury. Studies have cited olfactory dysfunction as occurring in approximately 30% of all head traumas [1].
