Title: Diagnostic imaging features of congenital nose and nasal cavity lesions. Author: Ginat DT, Robson CD. Journal: Clin Neuroradiol; 2015 Mar; 25(1):3-11. PubMed ID: 25095909. Abstract: A wide variety of congenital nasal lesions can present to clinical attention due to airway obstruction, the presence of a mass, and/or cosmetic deformity, including pyriform aperture stenosis, choanal atresia, nasopharyngeal atresia, arrhinia, congenital germline fusion cysts, cephaloceles, neuroglial heterotopia, nasolacrimal duct mucoceles, hamartomas, supernumerary nostril, and bifid nose. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, which are the main imaging modalities used to characterize these lesions, often serve complementary roles. Familiarity with embryology and anatomy is also essential for recognizing the diagnostic imaging findings related to congenital nasal lesions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
