OBJECTIVESThe aim of the study is correlation of para nasal sinuses between operative endoscopic findings of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) and pre-operative Computed Tomography. STUDY DESIGNTime bound Cross-sectional study. METHODOLOGYA group of 50 patients attending the ENT OPD for sinus related problems at Santhiram General Hospital, Nandyal, were examined and clinically confirmed cases of chronic rhinosinusitis were selected for study. CT scan findings were discussed with consultant radiologist and intrasinus mucosal disease and anatomical variations were noted. Further patients underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery, during which anatomical variations and intrasinus mucosal disease were noted. Both the findings were tabulated and correlated.

BACKGROUNDPre-septal cellulitis is the commonest orbital disease, which frequently needs to be differentiated from orbital cellulitis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment with appropriate antibiotics can prevent vision loss and life-threatening complications of orbital cellulitis. The aim of this paper is to describe the clinical profile of cases with pre-septal and orbital cellulitis admitted to Santhiram Medical College, Nandyal and analysis of clinical outcome.
