Difficult Area

<p class="abstract">The pterygopalatine fossa is a difficult area for surgical access and lesions in this area traditionally advocated open external trans maxillary approaches. With endoscopic techniques, it is possible to not only access and explore this area but also plan complete excision of lesions in the pterygopalatine fossa. We present a case report of a 26-year-old lady with complaints of pain in the area of the left cheek for 6 months. She had no other co-morbidities. On clinical examination, no abnormality was detected.  Radiological examination with magnetic resonance imaging showed a lesion possibly a schwannoma in the left pterygopalatine fossa behind the left maxillary sinus. Complete excision was achieved using trans nasal endoscopic technique through the left maxillary sinus. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of schwannoma.  Post-operative period was uneventful and she was free from any pain and neurological symptoms on subsequent follow up. Schwannomas in the pterygopalatine fossa are rare entities. Endoscopic techniques are safe and effective in accessing the pterygopalatine fossa for excision of lesions situated in this area. This technique obviates the need for external facial incisions or intra oral incisions and helps in good surgical outcomes and quick healing and recovery.   </p>

Comprehensive Literature Review

Cholesterol Granulomas of the Maxillary Sinus, considered an unusual presentation at this anatomical site. Over last 2 decades, only few cases are reported in the literature (English) and no available comprehensive reviews or studies on this entity. Herein in this article we present a comprehensive literature review of the available reports of 16 cases along with reporting a new case which we managed, aided with its histopathological pictures. This review article can be a reference for practitioners in the field of otorhinolaryngology who may encounter these cases. Also, it attracts the attention to consider this pathology among the differential diagnoses of nasal masses. Moreover, including a described pathological imaging may help young pathologist to identify this pathology.

The purpose of this article is to present the case of maxillofacial trauma patient with maxillary sinus fracture diagnosed with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to explore the applications of this technique in evaluating the maxillofacial region. A 23-year-old male patient attempted to our clinic who had an injury at midface with complaints of swelling, numbness. The patient was examined before in emergency center but any diagnosis was made about the maxillofacial trauma. The patient re-examined clinically and radiographically. A fracture on the frontal wall of maxillary sinus is determined with the aid of CBCT. The patient consulted with the department of maxillofacial surgery and it is decided that any surgical treatment was not necessary. The emerging technique CBCT would not be the primary choice of imaging maxillofacial trauma. Nevertheless, when advantages considered this imaging procedure could be the modality of choice according to the case.
