ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the characteristic of chronic paranasal sinusitis CT scans and discuss the relationship between the anatomic variations in ostiomeatal complex (OMC) and the incidence of chronic sinusitis.@*METHOD@#One hundred and ninety-seven cases diagnosis as sinusitis were selected and analyzed,whose age ranged between 4 and 74 years old. Several common anatomical abnormalities in ostiomeatal complex were evaluated through the observation of the coronal and axial plane CT scans of the paranasal sinusitis.@*RESULT@#The incidence of anatomic variations in OMC concentrated in the age between 11-20. The incidence of chronic sinusitis also concentrated in the age between 11-20. Deviation of nasal septum, uncinate variations, inferior-turbinate hypertrophy were observed between the chronic sinusitis group and the none chronic sinusitis group,the correlation between deviation of nasal septum, uncinate variations, inferior-turbinate hypertrophy and chronic sinusitis were significant (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The occurrence of OMC variation is common. The anatomic variations may be one of the causes of chronic paranasal sinusitis, especially deviation of nasal septum, uncinate variations and inferior-turbinate hypertrophy. If these abnormalities were altered,it will have a great significance for the preservation and treatment of chronic paranasal sinusitis.
