Computerized tomographic evaluation of early idiopathic midline granuloma.
Idiopathic midline granuloma (IMG) is a rare, slowly progressive inflammatory process producing localized destruction of the nasal mucosa, septum, paranasal sinuses, and palate, often associated with erosion through central facial tissue and bone. We review some of the salient features of IMG and present the first reported CT demonstration of this disease.
