Learn about the sphenoid sinus, a paired paranasal sinus in the body of the sphenoid bone. Find out its structure, innervation, anatomical relations, development, clinical significance, and transsphenoidal surgery.
30 cze 2024 · Learn about the location, pneumatization, blood supply, innervation, and variant anatomy of the sphenoid sinus, the most posterior paranasal sinus. Find out how to identify and report the type of pneumatization and the relationship with adjacent neurovascular structures.
30 paź 2023 · Learn about the sphenoid bone, one of the most complex bones of the human body, and its role in the skull and facial structures. Find out its parts, borders, contents, and how it develops from embryonic stages.
11 maj 2020 · Learn about the development, morphology and pneumatisation of the sphenoid sinuses, and how to identify and report their anatomical variants on CT. This article is aimed at radiologists and surgeons involved in otorhinolaryngology and neurosurgery.
The Sphenoidal Sinuses (sinus sphenoidales) contained within the body of the sphenoid vary in size and shape; owing to the lateral displacement of the intervening septum they are rarely symmetrical.
Lesions of the sphenoid sinus can be found early with neuroimaging, though a specific diagnosis requires an active process of examination, specific imaging, or surgery. Infection/inflammation was the most common pathology and malignancy was found in 7%.
27 maj 2014 · The anatomy of the sphenoid sinus is highly variable. Significant variability exists regarding the dimensions of the sphenoid sinus, attachment of the intersinus septum, number of septa, and pneumatization of the sphenoid bone. This variability has a direct impact on surgical planning for endoscopic skull base cases.
