VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS OF OSTEOMAS OF THE SPHENOID SINUS USING CONE BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY
Objectives: Osteomas are benign bone tumors characterized by slow growth, well-defined borders, and often asymptomatic presentation, frequently incidentally identified through radiography. Sphenoid sinus osteomas are particularly rare occurrences within the paranasal sinuses. This study aims to inve...

| description | Objectives: Osteomas are benign bone tumors characterized by slow growth, well-defined borders, and often asymptomatic presentation, frequently incidentally identified through radiography. Sphenoid sinus osteomas are particularly rare occurrences within the paranasal sinuses. This study aims to investigate the incidence and volumetric characteristics of sphenoid sinus osteomas. Material and Methods: This retrospective analysis involved the examination of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images obtained from patients referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology for various complaints. Two radiologists independently reviewed the images, recording instances of sphenoid sinus osteomas, their volumes, and patient demographics, which were subsequently subjected to statistical analysis. Results: A total of 1466 tomography images (821 females, 645 males) were assessed. Among these, 23 osteomas were identified within the sphenoid sinuses of 17 patients (8 females, 9 males). The mean volume of these osteomas was 183.59 mm³±168.56 (with a range of 9.98 to 552.80). No statistically significant difference in sphenoid osteoma volumes between males and females was observed (Mann-Whitney U test, U=30.000, p=0.564, z=-0.577). Conclusion: Consistent with existing literature, the incidence of sphenoid sinus osteomas in this study was found to be 1.15%. While asymptomatic osteomas detected via radiography typically do not warrant surgical intervention, regular radiographic follow-up is recommended to monitor for potential complications. |
