Sphenoidal and ethmoidal sinoliths
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Rhinology - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 28
Abstract
Sinoliths are rarely found calculi of paranasal sinuses. The most rarely they were found in the sphenoidal sinuses. At a routine Cone Beam CT exam of a 52-year-old male patient clinically silent small sinoliths were found bilaterally in the sphenoidal sinuses and a larger posterior ethmoidal sinolith was found on the right side. To our knowledge, such multiple sinuses involvement has not been previously reported.
