The endoscope has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), like all minimally invasive surgery, is designed to combine an excellent outcome with minimal patient discomfort. Successful outcome with minimal complications can only be achieved with good knowledge of the endoscopic anatomy, appropriate training in the procedure and the understanding of the anatomical variations. The intraoperative complications of ESS are bleeding and injury to surrounding structures commonly the orbital structures and fovea ethmoidalis. This is a hospital based prospective observational study with an objective to define the distribution of Keros classification of the depth of olfactory fossa and its asymmetrical distribution rates based on Keros type. Prospective study in a tertiary rural based hospital. 100 patients above the age of 10 years from October 2013 to March 2015 for a period of one year six months undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery in the Department of ENT, P.E.S. Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Kuppam were chosen randomly. The data was collected from these patients who will met the inclusion criteria of the study and before undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery by subjecting them to CT scan of paranasal sinuses. It is observed that a total of 100 patients had been studied in which the mean age of the population is 36.65 + 13.36 years. Youngest patient was 12 years old and eldest patient was 70 years old. Among the patients 50(50%) were males and remaining 50(50%) were females with a female to male ratio is 1:1. In the present study, the depth of olfactory fossa ranged from 2.1 to 8.3 mm inclusive of both sides in 200 CT images with a mean height of 5.21 mm. Of the 200 sides measured, the distribution of Keros classification is as the following-Keros type I 39(19.5%), Keros type II 143(71.5%) and Keros type III 18(9%) sides. Based on these observations, type II is the most common Keros type prevalent followed by type 1 Keros type and the least prevalent is the type III Keros type in the studied population. In the present study, on considering sides separately, the right side olfactory fossa depth ranged from 2.1 to 8.3 mm with a mean height of 5.43 mm and the left side olfactory fossa depth ranged from 2.1 to 8.1 mm with a mean height of 4.98 mm. On the right side, of 100 sides measured, the distribution of Keros classification is as the following-Keros type I 19(19%), Keros type II 68(68%) and Keros type III 13(13%) sides. On the left side, of 100 sides measured, the distribution of Keros classification is as the following-Keros type I 25(25%), Keros type II 70(70%) and Keros type III 5(5%) sides. Based on these observations, type II is the most common Keros type prevalent followed by type 1 Keros type and the least prevalent is the type III Keros type in the studied population on both sides. In the present study, out of 100 patients 23 patients were having asymmetric olfactory fossa between right and left sides based on Keros typ...
