The importance of ct scan in diagnostics and planning of simultaneous operations of the combined pathologies of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses
Abstract
Aim. To study the possibilities of CT in the diagnosis and planning of simultaneous operations of combined pathologies of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.
Material and methods. 120 patients with a combined pathology of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses had CT scan on the spiral device of Toshiba company production in axial and coronary projections with a step of the CT of 4 mm and a thickness of the cut of 4 mm.
Results. The examination revealed pathological changes in 115 (95.8%) patients. The maxillary sinus pathology was found in 36 (30.0%) cases; pathology of ethmoid sinus in 19 (15.8%) cases; frontal sinus pathology in 8 (6.7%) cases. 52 (38.8%) patients had a combined lesion of two or more sinuses.
Conclusion. CT scan of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is effective in all patients with combined pathologies. It helps to obtain complete information about the condition of all paranasal sinuses and to plan the sequence and the scope of surgical intervention.
