Popis: | The nose, paranasal sinuses, larynx, and trachea were evaluated in 17 patients with rhinoscleroma, using plain radiography, pluridirectional tomography, and/or computed tomography (CT). Radiographic findings included paranasal sinus opacification, nasal turbinate atrophy, nasal mass with bone destruction, transglottic narrowing, vocal cord thickening, and discrete subglottic narrowing. While the findings were nonspecific, radiography was useful in defining the extent of the disease and evaluating the response to therapy. The CT findings described are presumably the first to be reported. |
