AbstractAnatomy is the key to accurate imaging interpretation. It is essential for radiologists to thoroughly understand the normal anatomy and spatial relationships of the stomach and duodenum to accurately localize the site of abnormality. In this article, we describe in detail the gross and applied radiological anatomy of the stomach and duodenum, and the current role of various radiological investigations (including barium studies, endoscopic ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) in the evaluation of the diseases involving the stomach and duodenum.

Introduction Endoscopic skull base surgery (ESBS) provides a safe, minimally invasive approach to treat benign and malignant skull base lesions. The significance of concomitant sinonasal pathology on imaging in patients undergoing ESBS and its effect on perioperative management is not well described. We sought to identify the prevalence and clinical significance of incidentally found radiographic sinus disease on preoperative imaging in patients undergoing ESBS and provide a protocol for management of these patients. Design A retrospective chart review was performed of consecutive patients who underwent ESBS from January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2018. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans were reviewed and scored using the Lund-Mackay (LM) staging system. Preoperative nasal endoscopy findings were analyzed. Any preoperative treatment based on these findings and changes in intraoperative management were examined. Results A total of 156 patients (81 women, 74 men) who underwent ESBS were reviewed. The average LM score was 2 ± 2.7 (range: 0–12). A total of 94 patients (60.3%) had evidence of radiographic sinus disease (LM score > 0) and 23 patients (14.7%) had presence of sphenoid sinus disease. Seven patients (4.5%) were treated preoperatively based on CT and/or nasal endoscopy findings. All patients who received preoperative treatment had evidence of sinus disease on imaging with an average score of 4.7 and were evaluated and treated within 1-2 weeks prior to ESBS. One patient had ESBS postponed until endoscopic sinus surgery was performed for extensive chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) findings on imaging. Conclusion A review of preoperative imaging in patients undergoing ESBS can help identify concurrent sinonasal disease, which has the potential to alter preoperative as well as intraoperative management in these patients. We report a diligent but conservative approach for the treatment of concomitant CRS in the ESBS population with decision for preoperative treatment guided by various factors.
