However, there is a differential for an opacified paranasal sinus (Table 1). This article will present the typical appearances of these entities and demonstrate the benefit of a systematic approach in the evaluation of an ...
Isolated sphenoid sinus opacifications (ISSOs) are clinically important because they can lead to serious complications. However, some patients with ISSOs are asymptomatic, and not all patients are properly referred to the otolaryngology department.
Findings of acute sinusitis include an air-fluid level, mucosal thickening, and complete opacification of the sinus. Blood in the sinus due to recent trauma may mimic an air-fluid level...
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between the opacification degree of the paranasal sinuses on computed tomography (CT) with clinical symptoms, and anatomical variations of the nose and paranasal sinuses in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).
Background: Isolated sphenoid sinus opacifications (ISSOs) represent a relatively uncommon disease with the potential for serious complications. To better understand this disease, we performed a systematic review to further characterize the underlying pathologies, associated symptoms, and treatment outcomes of patients with ISSOs.
