The Benign Sphenoid Sinus Fungal Ball in a Mask of Sphenoid Non-specific Sinusitis by Means of Computer Tomography Imaging (Clinical Case)

Abstract

A clinical case of sphenoid sinus fungal ball was presented and interested for non-typical computer tomography imaging features, resulting in the patient was threatening from nonspecific sphenoid sinusitis throughout the year. A long persisted fungal ball became malignant. The imaging data of sphenoid sinus fungal ball in the onset and manifestation of the disease was analyzed. By presentation of the clinical case the importance of analyzing sinus bone wall remodeling by means of computer tomography and using of magnetic resonance imaging in a case of a timely fashion diagnosis of sphenoid fungal ball was shown.
