Osteomas are uncommon benign turners, occasionally located in the paranasal sinuses, of which the frontal and ethmoid sinus is the most frequent site. The etiology of the osteoma is still unknown but three possible theories have been proposed; embryological, traumatic and infective. The most common symptoms of osteoma are facial pain and headache, but most of them are asymptomatic and discovered incidentally on routine sinus radiography. Recently, the authors experienced two cases of large osteoma of the ethmoid sinus that were removed successfully by external ethmoidectomy.

Background: Frontal sinus fractures are relatively rare. Their surgical management significantly differs depending on whether the posterior wall is invaded and the clinical features vary. A bicoronal incision or endoscopic approach can be used. However, the minimally invasive approach has been attracting attention, leading us to introduce a simple and effective surgical method using multiple-threaded Kirschner wires. Methods: All patients had isolated anterior wall fractures without nasofrontal duct impairment. The depth from the skin to the posterior wall was measured using computed tomography to prevent injury. The edge of the bone segment on the skin was marked, a threaded Kirschner wire was inserted into the center of the bone segment, and multiple Kirschner wires were gently reduced simultaneously. Results: Surgery was performed on 11 patients. Among them, seven patients required additional support for appropriate fracture reduction. Therefore, a periosteal elevator was used as an adjunct through a small sub-brow incision because the reduction was incomplete with the Kirschner wire alone. The reduction results were confirmed using facial bone computed tomography 1 to 3 days postoperatively. The follow-up period was 3 to 12 months. Conclusion: The patients had no complications and were satisfied with the surgical results. Here we demonstrated an easy and successful procedure to reduce a pure anterior wall frontal sinus fracture via non-invasive threaded Kirschner wire reduction.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and computed tomographic features of 7 cases of maxillofacial gunshot injuries in the suicidal patients visited the emergency room, Capital Armed Forces General Hospital. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The gunshot wounds were directed from submental area to dorsum of nose(3 cases), frontal area(1 case), orbit(1 case), infraorbital area (1 case), and lateral to nasal wing(l case). The shape of inlet in gunshot wounds were round (diameter: l-3cm) and that of outlet were oval shape(size : inlet

The maxillary sinus appeared first among the sinuses of the skull at 92 days of prenatal stage. The early formation of frontal sinus was observed at 157 days in the cranial most part of the frontal bone while the early formation of palatine sinus was observed at 170 days. A total of five fontanelles were observed in prenatal skulls of buffalo. The largest and unpaired fontanelle was anterior fontanelle. The mastoid and sphenoidal fontanelle were paired. The ossification of anterior fontanelle was first observed at 164 days. All the fontanelles were ossified completely prenatally.

9.3kg의 6년령인 수컷 바셋하운드가 1년 이상 진행된 양측성 전두부위로부터 심한 점액화농성 분비물의 병력을 나타내었다. 내원당시 환축의 신체상태와 식욕은 불량하였다. 전두골위 피부에 형성된 누공으로부터 농성 삼출물이 양측성으로 분비되었다. 삼출물 시료를 배양하여 진균을 분리하였다. 방사선 검사에서는 전두동의 경계가 불분명하고 두꺼운 점액성막으로 덮여 있었으며 전두동의 혼탁도가 미만성으로 증가되어 있었다. 최종적으로 만성 진균성 전두동염으로 진단하였다. 전두동의 외과적 제거후 국소와 전신성 항진균요법으로 Chlorhexidine과 Ketoconazole을 적용하였다. 환축은 점진적으로 건강과 식욕을 회복하였다.

저자들은 좌전두동에 발생한 점액낭종의 1례를 경험하였기에 이에 보고하고져 한다. 24세의 남자 군인은 두통, 좌측 안구 돌출, 좌시력장애, 간헐적인 좌비출혈을 주소로 1980년 5월 16일 국군수도통합병원 이비인후과에 입원하였다. 진찰소견상 좌비갑개와 비중격의 소견으로 혈성반점이 비후된 중비갑개에 산재되어 있었고 비중격은 우측으로 만곡 상태이며 내안각쪽 안와내에 원형평활한 고무성의 무통성 종장이 감지되었으며 좌안와 내용물은 측방으로 밀려 복시를 동반한 탈출증을 나타내고 있었다. X-선 소견상, Cald-Well과 Water's View 소견은 좌안와와 좌전두동의 내측에 미만성 음영을 나타냈으며, X-선 단층촬영상 소견은 압박마난으로 기인되는 것으로 추측되는, 좌전두동에 비교적 뚜렷한 외측연과 희미하게 증가된 종물음영 그리고 좌측 안와상 내연의 소실이 보였다. 이 환자는 Lynch-frontal approch 수술로 제거되어 치료된바 문헌적 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Frontotemporal dermoid cysts with a cutaneous sinus tract in the sphenoid bone are rarely found, and furthermore, the spreading of these cysts across the frontal branch of the facial nerve has not been reported. Herein, we present a 5-year-old case of a dermoid cyst successfully resected with preservation of this nerve using a combined extracranial and intracranial approach. This approach is recommended for a safe and radical resection of the lesion and for securing an aesthetic outcome.

Purpose: The goals of cranioplasty are to protect the brain from trauma and restore normal cranial contour with as few complication as possible. In patient who suffered from cranial defect, the most satisfactory form of cranioplasty may be archived with autogenous bone grafts. We report on the treatment of large frontal bone defect using pericranial flap and split-rib graft. Methods: A 29-year-old male was referred to our department. He was involved in an automobile accident resulting in large frontal bone and sinus defect and skull basal defect. The reconstruction was undertaken using galeal frontalis myofascial flap and split-rib cranioplasty using bicoronal incision. Results: The postoperative course was successful. For 9 months follow up period, there was no complication about hematoma, infection, CSF leakage and washboard deformity. He was pleased with the results even when absolute symmetry was not achieved. Conclusion: We experienced large frontal bone and sinus defect and skull basal defect patient and successfully treated with split-rib graft and galeal frontalis myofascial flap.

Purpose: In treatment of facial bone fracture, occurred in children, we generally use wires, miniplate, absorbable plate or their combination. These foreign bodies can be palpable, and sometimes may cause infections, and need reoperation for removing. When bone fragments are multiple, small or thin, they are hard to handle and make accurate reduction of all fragments. In these cases, a biodegradable tissue adhesive, Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ (n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate), can be used as fixation technique for small, multiple, and thin fracture fragments. Methods: 3 years old and 6 years old children, who has comminuted fracture on frontal sinus, we used Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ for fixation of multiple bone fragments. After approaching by coronal incision, we pulled out all bone fragments and reconstructed bone fragments by Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ and fixed those on frontal sinus by absorbable plates. Results: Photographs and 3-dimensional CT obtained preoperatively and postoperatively. And we compared them each other in terms of accuracy of reconstructed bony contour. We could reconstruct almost all bone fragments easily along 3-dimensional structure and get excellent aesthetic results. There was no complication such as infection. Conclusion: In treatment of comminuted facial bone fracture, occurred in children, Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ is an excellent method for accurate reconstruction in small and thin bone fragments which cannot be fixed by wire, miniplate or absorbable plate without complication.

Synovial sarcomas are rare soft tissue malignancies arising from tendons, tendon sheaths, and bursal structures. These tumors usually develop in the extremities of adolescents and young adults. Uncommonly, these tumors may arise in the head and neck approximately 9% of all synovial sarcomas. Most common sites of head and neck synovial sarcomas are hypopharynx and surrounding structures of paranasal sinuses. However, frontal bone without involving paranasal sinus is extremely rare. We report a case of biphasic synovial sarcoma of the frontal bone discuss the clinical and pathologic features of this case with the literature review.
