Baroda Medical College Vadodara, Gujarat, ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Paranasal sinuses and their lesions are important challenge for clinicians. In the last 25 years,ct scan has become a useful diagnostic modality in the evaluation of PNS and an integral part of surgical planning. Our objective was to describe in detail, the lesions and their correlates as seen in CT scans. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is an observational study including 63 patients (46 males and 17 females) within the age range of 2 to 72 years (average age 38.75) who were undergoing Para nasal sinuses CT scan with pre and post contrast scans (Non-ionic contrast media). Histopathology and treatment response was collected from patients documents and case papers. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the data. RESULTS: The peak age incidence of Paranasal sinus lesions seen in age of years, with 27 cases. Discharge is most common symptom seen in 44 cases (70%),obstruction in 19 cases (30%) and pain in 10 cases(17%). Most common sinus involved is maxillary sinus 49 cases (77%).According to pathology inflammatory lesions were the most frequent constituting 43 cases (63%) CONCLUSION: Computer tomography is a sensitive and noninvasive tool that allow rapid detection,localization and extent of lesions on which management and prognosis is based. Contrast enhancement CT is particularly useful in evaluating neoplastic, chronic and inflammatory process. Key Words: Contrast enhancement, Paranasal air space, Computerized axial tomography (CAT scan) X-ray computed tomography INTRODUCTION The Paranasal sinuses are hollow, air-filled spaces located within the bones of the Face and surrounding the nasal cavity, a system of air channels connecting the nose with the back of the throat. There are four pairs of sinuses, each connected to the nasal cavity by small openings. First modern and accurate descriptions of the Para nasal sinuses can be traced to the works of the late 19th century Austrian anatomist Emil Zuckerkandl. CT has become a useful diagnostic modality in the evaluation of the paranasal sinuses and an integral part of surgical planning. It is also used to create Intraoperative road maps and the radiologic examination of choice in evaluating the PNS of a patient with *Corresponding Author: Dr. Bhumikaben P Suthar* Address: 12/C Gurukirpa Society, Opposite Shayog, Refinery Road, Gorwa, Vadodara, Gujarat Contact number: bhums22@yahoo.co.in sinusitis. The use of CT scanning combined with functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) has empowered the modern sinus surgeon to treat patients more effectively, facilitating reduced morbidity and complications. Objective of study: Purpose of study of 63 patients using CT scan for space occupying lesions in Para nasal sinus is to establish diagnosis, localize the disease, characterize the extent of pathology and describe any anatomical variations, Find out incidence rate, age and sex distribution patterns, evaluate the nature and extent of the lesions this helps the surgeon to elucidate whether surgery has a role and the type of surgery to perform, Distinguish aggressive and non-aggressive lesions, find symptomatology of the lesions and modes of presentation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Selection Criteria: Patients were studied with computed tomography for space occupying lesions of the Para nasal sinuses. All patients were selected from the S.S.G Hospital of Vadodara and were scanned at on or other CT scanners in 75 Int J Res Med. 2015; 4(4);75-80 e ISSN: p ISSN:

Neuroectodermal neural lesions most commonly involved the intracranial region either primarily or secondarily; in 5 cases (i.e. 80%) of this group. Soft tissue lesions were seen to involve nasopharynx, infratemporal fossa and pterygopalatine fossa. Intraorbital region was involved in 10 cases (i.e. 15.9%). Pterygopalatine fossa was involved in 10 cases (i.e. 15.9%). Nasopharynx was involved in 10 cases (i.e. 15.9%). Infratemporal fossa was involved in 06 cases (i.e. 9.5%). Intracranial region was involved in 05 cases (i.e. 7.9%). Intraoral region was involved in 04 cases (i.e. 6.3%). Intraorbital region was most commonly involved in 23 cases (i.e. 46%) followed by infratemporal fossa in 18 cases (i.e. 36%). Final pathology-wise distribution of lesions: Out of 63 cases, inflammatory lesions were the most frequently occurring constituting total of 43 cases (i.e %). In this category, polyps were the most common lesions, comprising of 29 cases (i.e. 46%) of the total. Epithelial lesions were the second most commonly occurring lesions constituting 7 cases (i.e. 11%). In this category, squamous cell carcinoma was the most common lesion comprising of 3 cases (i.e. 16%) of the total study. There were 4 cases (i.e. 6.3%) of neuroectodermal neural origin and 5 cases (i.e. 7.9%) of osseous, cartiligionous and odontogenic origin. There were 3 cases (i.e. 4.7%) of soft tissue origin lesions and 1 cases (i.e. 1.6%) of haemopoietic origin. DISCUSSION The computed tomographic scans of 63 patients who were found to have space occupying lesions of paranasal sinuses were analyzed and compare with previous study as per table -3.
