Left sided sieve sinus osteoma is a benign tumor that occurs in the sieve sinus and can be treated with observation and follow-up or surgery depending on the specific condition.
Left sieve sinus osteoma is an osteoma that occurs in the sieve sinus. The etiology of osteoma is mostly believed to be caused by the simultaneous arrangement of osteogenic and membranous tissues within the cartilage in the embryonic tissues, resulting in bone hyperplasia. Secondly, it can be caused by trauma and inflammation, resulting in periosteal hyperplasia of the sinus wall.
Sieve sinus osteoma is generally fluffy, composed of ossified fibers, broad-based, large, fast-growing, sometimes the center can liquefy into a cyst, the surface of the harder bone shell. Usually there is no obvious clinical symptoms in the early stage, and it needs to be detected by X-ray examination.
When the left sieve sinus osteoma is small, there is no clinical symptom, generally do not need to take special treatment, regular follow-up CT to observe the growth of osteoma. When the left sieve sinus osteoma increases in size, it can occupy most of the airspace and grow into the frontal sinus or pterygoid sinus. It can be removed surgically. Usually, endonasal endoscopic resection of sieve sinus osteoma is performed.
It is recommended that patients with left sieve sinus osteoma should go to regular hospitals in time to take targeted treatment under the guidance of professional doctors.
