Abstract
With the widespread use of endoscopic sinus surgery and advancement of coronal computed tomography, the importance of the lateral nasal wall anatomy and its variations has risen. In this study, a case of giant concha bullosa with a big ethmoid bullar invagination into it and which we named as complex concha bullosa, is presented.
Özet
Koronal paranazal sinüs tomografisinin geliştirilmesi ve endoskopik sinüs cerrahisinin yaygınlaşması ile birlikte lateral paranazal anatomi ve varyasyonları daha büyük önem kazanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, büyük etmoid bullanın dev orta konka bülloza içine invajine olduğu ve kompleks konka bülloza olarak adlandırdığımız bir olgu sunulmaktadır.
