Paranasal sinus anatomical anomalies with unknown etiology are common. Maxillary and/or frontal sinus aplasia or hypoplasia are more common than the other types. Although there are some reports about paranasal sinus anomalies in the literature, there is no case similar to ours, with total paranasal sinus aplasia. Here, we present a unique case of total paranasal sinus aplasia with a symptom of fullness on the face.
不明病因的副鼻窦解剖结构异常较为常见。上颌窦和/或额窦发育不全或发育不良比其他类型更为常见。尽管文献中有一些关于副鼻窦异常的报道，但我们所遇到的这种完全性副鼻窦发育不全的病例十分罕见。在这里，我们报告了一例独特的完全性副鼻窦发育不全病例，患者的面部有饱满感这一症状。
