This article describes the clinical case of an 86-year-old female patient with an asymptomatic clinical condition, without presenting a history of previous traumatisms. When routine radiographic exam-panoramic radiograph-was performed, the following extensions of the paranasal sinuses were found: maxillary sinus (palate), sphenoid sinus (pterygoid process, major wing, and anterior clinoid process), and supraorbital portion of the frontal sinus. Thus computerized tomography was performed to confirm the diagnosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
