Isolated sphenoid sinus lesions are usually inflammatory lesions or mucoceles. We report an unusual case of a thrombosed arteriovenous malformation presenting as a unilateral primary vascular malformation of the sphenoid sinus. To the best of our knowledge, no one has ever reported such an entity in the medical literature. Differential diagnosis of sphenoid sinus lesions and possible etiologies for this case will be detailed.
孤立性蝶窦病变通常为炎性病变或黏液囊肿。我们报告了一例罕见病例,即血栓形成的动静脉畸形表现为蝶窦的单侧原发性血管畸形。据我们所知,医学文献中从未有过此类病例的报道。本文将详细阐述蝶窦病变的鉴别诊断及该病例可能的病因。
