Quality of Life and Morbidity after Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgeries Using the Sinonasal Outcomes Test (SNOT): A Tertiary Hospital Experience.

Introduction: Endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (EESBS) has been associated with a minimally invasive and effective approach for pathology of the anterior skull base and associated with less overall morbidity compared with open approaches. However, it is associated with its own potential morbidity related to surgical manipulation or resection of normal and noninflamed intranasal structures to gain adequate access. The assessment of sinonasal QOL (quality of life) postsurgery is therefore a vital aspect in follow-up of these patients.

Tornwaldt nasopharyngeal cyst: Case series and literature review.

Background: Tornwaldt cyst (TC) is a relatively rare but benign disease. Although these lesions are asymptomatic and found incidentally during routine ENT examination, the can present with unexplained sinonasal symptoms, such as nasal obstruction, post nasal drip and occipital headache.

Aim: To study the clinical presentations and outcome of Tornwaldt nasopharyngeal cyst cases diagnosed and managed in our center.

Bilateral dentigerous cysts and ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinuses: A case report and literature review.

Introduction: Dentigerous cysts are the second most common form of benign odontogenic cysts. These cysts are commonly single lesions. Bilateral and multiple dentigerous cysts are very rare.

Pediatric alternating allergic fungal rhinosinusitis: A case report and literature review.

Objectives: to report the alternating nature of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis in children in the Eastern part of Saudi Arabia and to review the experience of King Fahad Specialist Hospital in the diagnosis and management of alternating allergic fungal rhinosinusitis in children. An 8 years old Saudi girl with alternating allergic fungal rhinosinusitis was diagnosed and managed. The patient was diagnosed to have unilateral left allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and underwent endoscopic sinus surgery and cleaning of the left sinuses from polyps, mud and mucin.
