NCT03222934 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 90

Last updated 2017-07-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

•Sphenoid sinus is located in the body of sphenoid bone, closed with a thin plate of bone tissue that separates it from the surrounding important structures .Detailed, meticulous preoperative radiological study of sphenoid sinus is the key to successful and safe functional endoscopic sinus surgery and transsphenoidal surgery. The purpose of the study is to delineate the sphenoid sinus radiologically using the multislice computed tomography and to decrease morbidity and mortality during skull base surgeries as the sphenoid sinus is one of the most variable of all sinuses and its relation to vital vascular and nervous elements make its approach a challenge for endoscopic surgeons
