BACKGROUND
We present a case of a myospherulosis, describe the underlying cause and discuss ways of preventing its development.
CASE REPORT
A 35-year-old man presented myospherulosis of the maxillary sinus caused by an antibiotic ointment placed in the sinus three years earlier during a Caldwell Luc procedure. The patient underwent a second Calwell Luc procedure. Outcome was uneventful and no recurrence was noted.
DISCUSSION
Histological examination should be ordered at reoperation and petroleum-based ointments and packings should be avoided in sinus surgery.
