Fibrous Dysplasia of Ethmoid Sinus: A Case Report

Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibroosseous lesion that may progress a single or multiple bones involvement. Although it is a benign tumor, it has available malignant transformation potential. While mostly maxilla, mandible, parietal, occipital, and temporal region are stiffed in the head and neck region,the ethmoid bone involvement is very rare. This article presents an 18-year old patient who was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia in right ethmoid sinus and had a mass in right ethmoid cells destructing lamina papyracea, which was detected in paranasal computerized tomography obtained due to complaints of pain around right eye, asymmetry between both eyes and diplopia.

Etmoid Sinüste Fibröz Displazi: Olgu Sunumu

Öz

Fibröz displazi (FD) iskelette tek ya da birden fazla kemik tutulumu ile seyreden benign bir fibroosseöz lezyondur. Benign bir tümör olmasına karşın, malign transformasyon potansiyeli mevcuttur. Baş boyun bölgesinde en sık maksilla, mandibula, parietal, oksipital ve temporal bölgeler tutulurken, etmoid kemik tutulumu oldukça nadirdir. Bu makalede, sağ göz etrafında ağrı, her iki göz arasında asimetri ve çift görme şikayeti nedeniyle çekilen paranazal bilgisayarlı tomografisinde sağ etmoid hücrelerde lamina papriseayı destrükte eden kitlesi olan, sağ etmoid sinüste FD tanısı alan 18 yaşında erkek hasta sunuldu.
