Word rhino- and - lith, literally meaning “nose & stone”. So, it is basically a stone that forms inside the nasal cavity. It is an uncommon disease that may present asymptomatically or as an accidental finding. Rhinolith itself is a rare condition out of which giant rhinolith case is extremely rare. If left undiagnosed or untreated it can cause rhinosinusitis, erosion of the nasal septum & medial wall of maxillary sinus & palatal perforation.

Aim - to show the clinical observation of the development of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis in case of entering the sinus of the root of the tooth. Materials and methods. The results of the study - video endoscopy of the nasal cavity and CT of the paranasal sinuses - were evaluated. The obtained data pointed to the foreign body that caused not only an inflammatory process with subsequent development of the mycetoma, but also destruction of the medial wall of the maxillary sinus, the inferior nasal concha. Access to the maxillary sinus was discussed, and surgical intervention was performed. Conclusions. The root of the tooth was extracted through the developed defect of the medial wall of the maxillary sinus communicating with the lower nasal passage.

The palatine bone is an Important posterior landmark in the performance of ethmoldectomy. This usually unrecognized structure forms the posterior one third of the lateral nasal wall. Resection of a portion of the palatine bone completes the marsupialization of the sphenoethmoidal recess and medial maxilla. It is a major landmark for localization of the sphenopalatine artery at its entrance into the nose. Middle meatal antrostomy is enhanced by removal of the part of the palatine bone that forms the posterior medial wall of the maxillary sinus. In 1110 consecutive sphenoethmoldectomles, marsupialization of the maxillary sinuses has included partial removal of the perpendicular plate of the palatine bone. Patency has been maintained in all of these antrostomies. Pertinent anatomy and surgical technique are reviewed.

A 74-year-old male patient presented to the outpatient department with left-sided epiphora and chronic dacryocystitis, without any history of head trauma or previous nasal or paranasal sinuses surgery. No abnormalities were noted at the time with the use of nasal endoscopy. The computed tomography scan however revealed an osteoma of the medial wall of the left maxillary sinus. An endonasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) with osteoma removal by using a drill with temporary silicone stenting of the nasolacrimal duct system was performed. Due to a granuloma formation at the DCR-window site 2 months postoperatively a revision-DCR was performed and the new window remained patent at control 6 months after surgery.

✓ A transmaxillosphenoidal approach was used to remove sellar tumors invading the cavernous sinus. This procedure, a widening of the standard transsphenoidal approach to the sella turcica, uses the sublabial or transnasal route in which the medial wall of the maxillary sinus is laterally dislocated. This method provides good exposure of the prominences of bone above the carotid artery which lies on the posterolateral wall of the sphenoid sinus. This bone area is the key to opening the cavernous sinus inferomedially and removing lesions within its medial compartment. The inferomedial approach takes an entirely extracerebral route so that tumors invading the cavernous sinus through its medial wall are approached inferomedially following the direction of tumor growth. It also allows direct visualization of the intracavernous carotid artery during tumor removal, thus sparing the cranial nerves, which run on the opposite side. Adequate surgical exposure of a pituitary adenoma is achieved with a custom-made sphenoidal retractor with asymmetric blades, the shorter blade holding aside the thin medial wall of the maxillary sinus. Between October, 1989, and July, 1993, 11 patients with tumors invading the cavernous sinus underwent surgery via this approach; 10 had pituitary adenomas and one had a craniopharyngioma. Eight tumors were treated by primary operation: four tumors were totally and four subtotally (> 80%) removed; one tumor already operated on elsewhere was totally removed; and of two tumors already operated on and irradiated, one was subtotally removed and the other only partially (approximately 40%) removed owing to marked postirradiation scarring. None of the patients suffered permanent cranial nerve deficit and all but one showed marked clinical improvement.

We present a case of allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) in a 24 -year old man with history of left sided nasal obstruction and discharge since few years. Since few months he developed epiphora in the left eye associated with discomfort on eye movements. Patient was examined and CT with contrast was done. CT contrast showed an enhancing lesion in Left maxillary and ethmoid sinuses and erosion of the inferior bony wall of the orbit and medial wall of maxillary sinus. Though most patients of fungal sinusitis are immunocompromised but this patient was young male immunocompetent and made an unusual presentation with visual epiphora and painful eye movements. CT showed bony erosion of the Left inferior Bony wall of the Orbit and medial wall of Maxillary Sinus. After through examination and specific investigations, the patient was posted for surgery. We planed for Cald well –Luc’s Surgery and Endoscopic excision of the mass .Histological examination was reported as non malignant and microscopy showed Fungal Hyphae. After the surgery patient was discharged satisfactorily within couple of days and followed up regularly.
