Abstract

Sphenoidal sinusitis is usually described as acute inflammation of the sphenoid sinuses - either one or both - (the two large cavities just behind the nose and between the eyes). The disease is relatively uncommon—comparatively, chronic sphenoid sinusitis is more common—and may be limited to the sphenoid sinus or, more commonly, may involve multiple sinuses or pansinusitis.  Acute sphenoid sinusitis can lead to symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and even complications in the orbit. For low vision, early diagnosis and treatment is essential to preserve vision and life. This study aims Learn about surgical approaches to the treatment of acute sinusitis

Keywords: Paranasal sinuses, acute sphenoid sinuses, inflammation, surgical treatment, headache
