xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader Endoscopic Transnasal Management of Giant Paediatric Sinonasal Ossifying Fibroma Via Otolaryngology Indian Abstract The ossifying fibroma is a rare fibro-osseous benign lesion of bone in the head and neck region. The mandible is the most common site reported followed by maxilla and other bones of the skull. A paediatric male presented with protrusion of the right eyeball for one-month duration. Further evaluation by diagnostic nasal endoscopy revealed a smooth mass confined to the superior and middle meatus on the right side. Computed tomography of paranasal sinus showed a large heterogenous bony lesion involving the ethmoid and sphenoid sinus and extending laterally into the orbit and superiorly into anterior skull base. Endoscopic biopsy was suggestive of ossifying fibroma. Transnasal endoscopic excision of the lesion was done and the patient is currently on follow-up. This case is reported for the rarity of presentation and the difficulties in management. View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook.
