Zusammenfassung

Das Osteom ist der häufigste Tumor der Nasennebenhöhlen (NNH). Häufig verursacht es keine Symptome. Männer sind häufiger als Frauen davon betroffen. Ein 52-jähriger Patient litt nach abgeheilter Sinusitis frontalis unter zunehmenden Zephalgien. Computertomographisch zeigte sich ein gestieltes Stirnhöhlenosteom. Osteome der NNH weisen histomorphologisch zumeist kortikal differenzierten Knochen mit spärlichen Markräumen und lamellärer Konfiguration auf. Nach chirurgischer Entfernung war der Patient 6 Monate später immer noch beschwerdefrei.

Abstract

Osteoma, the most frequent tumor of the paranasal sinuses (PNS), is often asymptomatic. Men are more commonly affected than women. A 52-year-old patient complained of increasing incidence of headaches following the resolution of frontal sinusitis. Computer tomography demonstrated a pedunculated osteoma of the frontal sinus. Histomorphologically, PNS osteomas usually show cortical bone differentiation with sparse medullary space and a lamellar configuration. At 6 months following surgical resection, the patient was still symptom-free.
