Frontal sinus osteoma associated with pneumocephalus

Baran Onal et al. Diagn Interv Radiol. 2006 Dec.

Abstract

The most common causes of intracranial air are head trauma and neurosurgical procedures. Less common etiologies include infection due to gas-forming organisms, mucoceles, tumours, congenital neuroenteric cysts, and dural defects. Here, we present a case of a frontal sinus osteoma associated with longstanding pneumocephalus.
