Frontoethmoid Osteoma Causing Tension Pneumocephalus.

Iplikcioglu, Ahmet Celal Karabag, Hamza

Abstract


Tension pneumocephalus is a life-threatening condition that is characterized by the accumulation of intracranial air, causing increased intracranial pressure. Paranasal sinus osteomas are common, slow-growing benign tumors usually diagnosed incidentally. Paranasal sinus osteomas causing tension pneumocephalus have been very rarely reported.
