Osteomas are the most common benign tumors of the paranasal sinuses. They may be seen at all ages and show a male preponderance. A 54-year-old male patient presented with a complaint of nasal obstruction. Computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses showed three osteomas, nearly 5 mm in size, in both ethmoid sinuses and the right frontal sinus. Inquiry into the Gardner's syndrome was negative. No surgical treatment was performed at the patient's discretion. To our knowledge, the presence of multiple osteomas in the frontal and ethmoid sinuses has not been reported in the English literature.
骨瘤是鼻窦最常见的良性肿瘤。各年龄段均可出现,男性更为多见。一名54岁男性患者因鼻塞前来就诊。鼻窦计算机断层扫描显示双侧筛窦和右侧额窦有3个大小约5毫米的骨瘤。对加德纳综合征的调查结果为阴性。患者自行决定未进行手术治疗。据我们所知,英文文献中尚未报道过额窦和筛窦出现多发骨瘤的情况。
