“…Sahu et al [11] conducted a study in which he concluded that the severity of DNS and the proportion of inferior turbinate hypertrophy are correlated which was similar to that of present study although the severity was not assessed in present study. The co-occurrence of DNS and inferior turbinate hypertrophy was noted majorly.…”

Objectives: The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of pathological conditions and anatomical variations occurring within paranasal sinus among the patients undergoing computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan in Gurugram district. Methods: A prospective study was conducted among 20 patients in each modality, the patient undergoing the CT of paranasal sinus and patients undergoing routine MRI brain study. The clinical findings from CT and MRI were taken as primary data and later on compiled together under different variables to assess the occurrence of paranasal sinus disease and anatomical variations within. Results: The present study revealed that the most common pathology was mucosal thickening followed by polyp and the occurrence of air-fluid level; maxillary sinus being commonly affected. In patients undergoing CT, the most common anatomical variation was deviated nasal septum, that is, 16 out of 20 patients followed by the bone spur formation. In the patients undergoing routine MRI brain, most of the patient had mucosal thickening <5 mm. In the lining of maxillary sinus, moderate hyperintensity was reported. Conclusion: Based on the study, it is concluded that mucosal thickening is most commonly evident pathology with maximum occurrence seen in the maxillary sinus. The co-occurrence of more than 1 anatomical variation and involvement of multiple paranasal sinuses were seen positive. MRI was found more sensitive in assessing the early changes in sinus mucosal abnormalities.

“…However, inflammatory factors can exacerbate this condition, leading to chronic nasal congestion and an increased predisposition to CRS. 34 Concha hypertrophy can manifest as either bilateral or unilateral enlargement. Bilateral concha hypertrophy is commonly associated with both allergic and nonallergic conditions.…”

Background: Anatomical variations of the nose and paranasal sinuses are one of the contributing factors in developing Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) predisposing factor and complications during surgery complicating factors. CT Scan has an important role in diagnosing. One of the tools used to identify and detecting thesediagnose anatomical variations. in patients is CT scans. Objectives : To study theexamine prevalence of anatomical variations of the nose and paranasal sinuses found on CT Scanscans images of adult chronic rhinosinusitis patients. with CRS. Methods: The research conduct through aA retrospective descriptive studyresearch was conducted using CT scans images of 43 nose and paranasal sinuses CT Scans of the adult CRS patients who went tovisited the Allergy Rhinology Polyclinic at Dr. Hasan Sadikin hospital,Hospital in Bandung; on 1 between January-31 1 and December 31, 2019. Anatomical variations assessment of the nosewere assessed and paranasal sinuses divided into:categorized as CRS predisposing and surgery-complicating factors. CRS factors include septal deviation, Agger nasi, frontal bullae, concha hypertrophy, bullae ethmoid, pneumatized septum, concha bullosa, accessory ostium, bullous uncinate process; paradoxical, secondary, and sinus concha. While surgery complicating factors are depth of olfactory fossa, fronto ethmoid cells, inter frontal sinus septal cells, Haller cells, supraorbital cells, Onodi cells, intra maxillary sinus septum, and uncinate process attachment. Other include infraorbital nerve, anterior ethmoid artery, optic nerve, internal carotid artery, vidian canal dehiscence, atelectasis uncinate processus, intra sphenoid sinus septum, frontal, maxilla, and sphenoid sinus pneumatization. Results: The result showed that the most common CRS predisposing factors were septal deviation (90.8%), concha hypertrophy (72.2%), and Agger Nasi Cells (65.1%);%). Regarding surgery -complicating factors are, the most prevalent ones were Keros II (72.2%), sellar sphenoid sinus (69,.8%), and Kuhn I (58,.1%). Conclusion:SeptalIn conclusion, septal deviations, concha hypertrophy, and Agger Nasi cells asCells are the most common anatomical variations associated with CRS predisposing factors;predisposition. Additionally, Keros II, sellar sphenoid sinus sellar, and Kuhn I were identified as the most frequent complicating factors for surgery. These findings emphasize the importance of considering these anatomical variations in managing CRS.
