摘要

鼻腔结构容易发生不同的解剖变异，其中之一就是鼻甲积气。下鼻甲气化是一种罕见现象。我们报告了一例偶然发现下鼻甲圆锥囊肿的病例，患者是一名 30 岁的女性，因鼻塞和头痛就诊。在评估患者的计算机断层扫描图像时，意外发现右侧下鼻甲充气。我们的患者接受了药物治疗，未进行手术干预，症状得到了很好的改善。医生应该意识到这种罕见变异的存在，如果它足够大，可能会导致严重的鼻部症状，他们应该将其保留在鉴别诊断中，并进行相应的处理。

Pneumatized inferior turbinate (concha bullosa of inferior turbinate)

The nasal cavity structures are prone to different anatomical variations; one of these is concha bullosa, which best known as pneumatization of the nasal turbinate. This pneumatization is a rare phenomenon to in the inferior turbinate. We report the case of an incidental finding of inferior turbinate concha bullosa in a 30- year-old female who presented with nasal obstruction and headache. While evaluating the patient’s computed tomography image, a pneumatized right inferior turbinate accidentally found. Our patient treated medically without surgical intervention and showed good improvement in her symptoms. Physicians should be aware of the presence of such a rare variation that may lead to serious nasal symptoms if it is large enough, they should keep it in the differential diagnosis and with deal with it accordingly.
