[Sinonasal hemangiomas: principles of diagnosis and treatment. Literature review]. / Sinonazal'nye gemangiomy: printsipy diagnostiki i lecheniya (obzor literatury).

Hemangiomas of the nasal cavity are extremely rare in the practice of an otorhinolaryngologist and can be presented in various histopathological variants. Scientific data on hemangiomas of the sinonasal region are analyzed and systematized. The article describes the principles of diagnosis and choice of the method of surgical treatment of hemangiomas. An analysis of the literature data shows that with hemangiomas of the nasal cavity, a comprehensive examination of the patient is required, including collection of complaints and anamnesis, endoscopy of the nasal cavity and computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses, and with significant hemangiomas spreading to neighboring anatomical areas, magnetic resonance imaging with intravenous contrast.

[The evolution of ideas about cyst-like stretching of the paranasal sinuses. Part I]. / Evolyutsiya predstavlenii o kistovidnom rastyazhenii okolonosovykh pazukh. Chast' I.

Treatment of patients with severe chronic and recurrent forms of sinusitis, complicated by pathological stretching of the paranasal sinuses, is not a trivial task. This is especially true for those clinical cases where a pathological increase in the size of the sinus leads to widespread destruction of its walls and may be accompanied by serious complications from adjacent structures. The paper presents an analytical review of publications on the topic of pathological stretching of the paranasal sinuses. Potential factors influencing the development of this pathology, mechanisms of pathogenesis and classification options are described in detail. Modern approaches are considered in the surgical treatment of this pathology, which can be carried out in one or two stages, depending on the presence of secondary aesthetic defects.

[Intraosseous cavernous hemangioma of the middle turbinate. Clinical cases]. / Vnutrikostnaya kavernoznaya gemangioma srednei nosovoi rakoviny. Klinicheskie sluchai.

Intraosseous vascular pathology of the turbinates is extremely rare in the practice of an otorhinolaryngologist and can be presented in various histopathological variants. The article presents two clinical cases in which an intraosseous cavernous hemangioma was hidden under the mask of a hypertrophied middle turbinate. The final diagnosis was established by the results of histological examination. The analysis of these clinical cases indicates that, despite the low prevalence, atypical clinical and CT picture, intraosseous formations of the nasal cavity can be of a vascular nature and certainly require a comprehensive examination, including CT, CT with contrast and/or MRI of the nose and paranasal sinuses. These clinical observations indicate that preliminary embolization of feeding vessels before surgical treatment is not required.

[Assessment of the structural features of the hard palate in endonasal surgery]. / Otsenka anatomii tverdogo neba v khirurgii peregorodki nosa.

Data on the features of the anatomical structure of the hard palate are little described in the scientific literature, and therefore are not taken into account when planning surgical treatment. One of the intraoperative complications during intervention on the lower part of the nasal septum is perforation of the bottom of the nasal cavity, which can develop during a christotomy. This complication mainly depends on the features of the anatomical structure of the hard palate. OBJECTIVE: To study the anatomical structure of the hard palate from the point of view of rhinosurgery, using vector analysis of multispiral computed tomography (MSCT), and to establish anatomical features that should be taken into account when performing surgical interventions on the nasal septum. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 107 patients (30 men, 77 women) were examined without congenital cleft palate and surgical interventions on the structures of the nasal cavity and hard palate. All patients underwent MSCT of the nose and paranasal sinuses (PNS) followed by multiplanar image reconstruction. The key point relative to which the measurements were carried out was the posterior wall of the incisor canal from the side of the nasal cavity. The line corresponding to the bottom of the nasal cavity was chosen as the main vector. In the work, measurements of the thickness of the hard palate (THP) at the level of the palatal suture and the width of the palatal suture (WPS) were carried out. RESULTS: Statistical analysis of the obtained results showed that the THP is 1.74 mm [min 0.28; max 6.46], the WPS is 0.9 mm [min 0.2; max 2.51] (conditional norm). In 19 patients (17.8%), the THP was 0.82 mm, in 2 patients (1.9%) - 0.2 mm. In 3 patients (2.8%), the WPS was equal to 2.5 mm. CONCLUSION: Thus, the data obtained by us indicate that the surgical anatomy of the hard palate is characterized by significant variability, while in some patients the THP can be reduced by 8.8 times, and the WPS increased by 2.7 times compared to normal values. Such anatomical features of the structure of the hard palate should be taken into account when planning septoplasty, since this contingent of patients has an increased risk of developing iatrogenic perforation of the nasal floor during surgical intervention on the lower floor of the nasal septum.
