Aspergillomas of the sphenoid sinus: a series of 10 cases treated by endoscopic sinus surgery.

Abstract:

:We report our experience with 10 cases of sphenoidal aspergillomas treated by endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). Chronic symptoms such as cough, post-nasal discharge, dysphonia and even facial pain can be encountered in the history. Computerised tomography and, occasionally, magnetic resonance imaging are of great help in the assessment of this disease, especially when extensive skull base involvement is present. The radiological presentation can vary from an heterogeneous to homogeneous opacity with or without bone lysis to a frank pseudotumoural appearance. Four diagnostic tools have been evaluated to confirm the diagnosis: histology, direct smear, fungal cultures, and serology for Aspergillus. ESS has been successfully carried out without morbidity in all cases. No recurrence of the disease is seen after a mean follow-up of 27 months.

  • Olfactory dysfunction.

    abstract::Otolaryngologists, neurologists and other medical practitioners are often not well equipped for assessing olfactory (dys)function. They either use no or inadequate olfactory tests. This problem of inadequate olfactory testing was systematically attacked by American psychologists in the early 80's and led to the constr...
