ENT examination described exacerbation of chronic left
pansinusitis, chronic hypertrophic rhinitis, left facial nerve paralysis caused by left otomastoiditis and right chronic sero-mucinous otitis.
Patients with this condition--like the aforementioned 16-year-old--are almost always atopic with chronic
pansinusitis and positive skin tests to one or more fungi.

Of 339 patients, the primary diagnosed diseases along with their co-existent conditions were 66 Deviated Nasal Septum (DNS), 54 maxillary sinusitis, 47 ethmoid sinusitis, 44 Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy (ITH), 35 maxillary sinus-mucosal hypertrophy, 28 frontal sinusitis, 20 ethmoidal polyp, 14 antrochoanal polyp, 12 nasal mass, 9 nasopharyngeal mass, 5 concha bullosa, 3
pansinusitis and 2 sphenoid sinusitis (Fig.
A repeat noncontrast CT of the head demonstrated bilateral
pansinusitis, intracranial findings that were consistent with cerebritis, and a left intraorbital mass.
X-ray paranasal sinuses showed
pansinusitis and x-ray of the neck showed enlarged adenoid.
CT of the paranasal sinuses showed that the growth extended from the nasal cavity into the nasopharynx with
pansinusitis.
INVESTIGATION: Blood and urine reports--within normal limits CT scan findings were suggestive of hypodense foreign body in left orbit, which is coursing from medial canthus from region of left lacrimal sac with its distal tip in right sphenoid sinus and leading to fracture of medial orbital wall and the ethmoid septae with

X ray PNS showed
pansinusitis and a diagnosis of chronic sinusitis was made after examination.
Computed tomography (CT) revealed that the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses were affected in all 21 patients--nine had unilateral ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal, and maxillary sinusitis; seven had
pansinusitis; two had unilateral ethmoid and sphenoid sinusitis; two had bilateral ethmoid and sphenoid sinusitis; and one had unilateral ethmoid, sphenoid, and frontal sinusitis.
[8] Ernst et al described the case of a 17-year-old girl who had
pansinusitis with polypoidal changes.
