[Postoperative clinical and ct-xray evaluation of the septic inflammatory sinus pathology].
It is classically been though that radical sinus surgery implies a difficulty for ulterior image diagnosis. The reason is postoperative fibrosis of soft tissue may be shown at TC scan as an occupation of paranasal sinuses. We realized that it does not usually happen. The aim of our study is to find out the appearance of sinuses after radical surgery performed to treat chronic sinusitis, mucocele and sinusal cysts. For so doing we have reviewed symptoms and radiological signs before and after surgery.
