“…Embryologic origins of the paranasal sinuses are present at the third to fourth month of intrauterine life, however, reaches their final size in postnatal life. 8 Aplasia of paranasal sinus is a rare condition and most commonly found in frontal sinus unilaterally (%15) or bilaterally (%5) in adults. 1 Maxillary sinus aplasia is extremely rare, whereas maxillary sinus hypoplasia is a well-known clinical entity.…”

absence of the ostiomeatal complex and ethmoidal air cells. Both bony lacrimal canal was narrow. On axial CT scans the smallest transverse diameter was approximately 2.6 mm for the right bony canal, and 2.2 mm for the left bony canal (Fig. 2A). It is shown that all of the paranasal sinuses are aplasic in consecutive coronal CT sections (Fig. 2B-D). Additionally, localization of her upper teeth were irregular.

Paranasal sinus anatomical anomalies with unknown etiology are common. Paranasal sinus-related diseases are associated with so high rate of morbidities, it becomes essential to identify the structure and pathophysiology of the paranasal sinuses. Computed tomography (CT) is a valuable tool in displaying its anatomy, any anatomic variations and diseases. As paranasal sinus development is a complex and long-lasting process, there are great structural variations between individuals. Maxillary and/or frontal sinus aplasia or hypoplasia are more common than the other types. Several degrees and combinations of aplasias and hypoplasias have been reported; however, there is only two case of total paranasal sinus aplasia in the literature. Here, we present the third case of total paranasal sinus aplasia, and the first ever case reported from India.

Agenesisofthesphenoidsinuses isavery rarely encountered anatomic variation. Findings onmagnetic resonance imagingcan mislead the radiologist and clinician. Therefore, thegold standardfor diagnosis is computed tomography (CT) of the paranasal sinuses. We present the case of a 28-year-old manwho was admitted toourhospital witha 3-month history ofheadache. CToftheparanasal sinuses revealed isolated bilateral sphenoid sinus agenesis.
