Original Source: Spontaneous pneumocephalus associated with pneumocele of the frontal sinus.
Background: Pneumoceles of the paranasal sinuses are a very rare condition; characterized by a distended air-filled paranasal sinus extending beyond the margins of the paranasal bone, with bony defects and extension of air into the surrounding soft tissues. Also, spontaneous pneumo-cephalus is a rare condition which represented only 0.6% in the largest reported series of pneumocephalus. Although pneumocephalus caused by sinogenic origins, such as osteoma, has been reported, spontaneous pneumocephalus has no...

[Comment] Primary spontaneous pneumothorax: to pleurodese or not?
Pneumothorax refers to air in the pleural cavity and can be spontaneous or traumatic. Traumatic pneumothorax occurs because of direct or indirect trauma to the chest (including iatrogenic causes). Spo...
SinuSys receives CE mark for AerOs Sinus Dilation system
SinuSys has obtained CE mark for its AerOs Sinus Dilation system, designed to open the maxillary ostia (openings that connect a sinus to the nasal cavity) and treat painful chronic sinusitis.
Clonal evolution in maxillary sinus carcinoma
Knowing how tumors evolve can lead to new treatments that could help prevent cancer from recurring, according to researchers. They have tracked several years of tumor evolution in a 47-year-old male p...
Venous Thromboembolism May Not Be Preventable
Research data suggest that venous thromboembolism most commonly occurs in patients with risk factors and that postoperative infection may be a warning sign of venous thromboembolism. Medscape Medica...
Mathematical counseling for all who wonder why their relationship is like a sinus wave
Neuroinformaticians have provided a mathematical model for efficient communication in relationships. Love affair dynamics can look like a sinus wave: a smooth repetitive oscillation of highs and lows....
Coactivation of multiple tightly coupled calcium channels triggers spontaneous release of GABA
The authors show that spontaneous transmission from inhibitory synapses, in contrast with excitatory synapses, is triggered by voltage-dependent calcium channel activity. In addition, they find that s...
Oral steroid don't clear up sinus infections
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The steroid prednisolone is no better at reducing the symptoms of a sinus infection than a placebo, according to a new study.

Sinus Pericranii: A Case Report and Review of Literature.
Normally, there is no obvious communication between the intracranial and extra cranial venous drainages in the head. In Sinus Pericranii, there is an abnormal communication, either from the extra cran...

Bilateral frontal sinus pericranii with an intratabular course. A case report.
Summary: Sinus pericranii is a rare venous anomaly, representing a transosseous connection between the intracranial venous system and the epicranial venous system. We present an unusual case of bilate...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the anatomy of and normal variations in the craniocervical junction veins. We retrospectively reviewed 50 cases that underwent contrast-enhanced CT with a multide...
Evaluation of plasma d-dimer plus fibrinogen in predicting acute CVST.
BACKGROUND: Prompt diagnosis of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is a challenge owing in part to its complex and non-specific early clinical symptoms. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the value...
