Abstract

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the frequency of anatomic variations of the paranasal sinus region by using multidetector computer-ized tomography (MDCT).Methods: Between November 2009 and February 2012, 5832 adult pa-tients (2980 females, 2852 males) with a mean age of 39.1±15.4 years (range; 19-85), who underwent MDCT imaging of the paranasal sinus re-gion, were retrospectively evaluated by using the picture archiving and communication system (PACS). All the images were evaluated by three ra-diologists. Frequency distribution and descriptive statistics of the variants were analysed.Results: Nasal septal deviation was the most commonly detected variation (59.1%) and most were rightward (26.5%). Middle concha pneumatization was the second most commonly encountered variation (57.2%), whereas nasal septum pneumatization was the third most common one (34.8%). Maxillary sinus aplasia was detected in one patient and it was the least common variation (0.05%). Dehiscence of the maxillary nerve (0.4%) and internal carotid artery (0.5%) and sphenoid sinus aplasia (0.5%) were infre-quently encountered variations in our study.Conclusion: It is important for the radiologist to know the anatomical variations of the paranasal sinus region in order to consider their pos-sible pathological consequences. Guiding the surgeon in the preoperative period is essential to avoid potential complications.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, paranazal sinüs bölgesindeki anatomik varyasyon frekanslarını çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi (ÇKBT) kullanarak değerlen-dirmeyi amaçladık.Yöntemler: Kasım 2009-Şubat 2012 arasında paranazal sinüs bölgesine yönelik ÇKBT yapılan, ortalama yaşı 39,1±15,4 (Aralık; 19-85), olan 5832 yetişkin hasta (2980 kadın, 2852 erkek) görüntü arşivleme ve iletişim siste-mi (PACS) kullanılarak retrospektif olarak radyologlar tarafından değerlen-dirildi. Varyasyonların frekans dağılımı ve tanımlayıcı istatistikler analiz edildi.Bulgular: Nazal septum deviasyonu en sık saptanan varyasyondu (%59,1) ve en sık sağ taraflıydı (%26,5). Orta konka pnömatizasyonu ikinci en sık (%57,2), nazal septum pnömatizasyonu ise üçüncü en sık (%34,8) saptanan varyasyondu. Maksiller sinüs aplazisi bir hastada saptanmıştı ve en az sık-lıkta görülen varyasyondu (%0,05). Maksiller sinir dehisansı (%0,4), internal karotid arter dehisansı (%0,5) ve sfenoid sinüs aplazisi (%0,5) çalışmamızda nadir saptanan varyasyonlardı.Sonuç: Radyologlar için paranazal sinüs bölgesi anatomik varyasyonlarını bilmek olası patolojik sonuçları öngörmek için önemlidir. Ameliyat öncesi cerrahlara rehberlik etmek potansiyel komplikasyonları engellemek için esansiyeldir.
