Concha bullosa is generally defined as the pneumatization of the middle turbinate and, rarely, of the superior or the inferior turbinates. A symptomatic pneumatization of the superior turbinate is extremely rare. When symptomatic, concha bullosa may cause various problems. Concha bullosa can be easily recognized in paranasal sinus computed tomography. In this article we present a very rare case with bilateral pneumatization of the superior turbinates in a patient with relevant symptomatology.
泡状鼻甲通常定义为中鼻甲的气化，很少情况下是上鼻甲或下鼻甲的气化。上鼻甲有症状的气化极为罕见。当出现症状时，泡状鼻甲可能会引发各种问题。泡状鼻甲在鼻窦计算机断层扫描中很容易识别。在本文中，我们呈现了一例非常罕见的病例，一名有相关症状的患者双侧上鼻甲出现气化。
