Abstract

We have recently operated on patients with isolated lesions of the sphenoid sinus using the trans-superior meatal approach that we developed. This may be one of the least traumatic methods for treating the isolated lesions of the sphenoid sinus. Though it has a few limitations, this approach provides a direct and safe short-cut to the sphenoid sinus and is well tolerated by the patient under local anesthesia. We present our experience with transnasal trans-superior meatal approach to the sphenoid sinus and introduce the technique with case reports.

Most cases of acute aspergillosis occur in patients with severely compromised immune systems. Chronic colonization or infection can cause complications in people with underlying respiratory illnesses. Discover the latest research on aspergillosis here.
