| Â | Ethmoid Hematomas |
 | | It is important to keep in mind that an ethmoid hematoma may be completely located within a paranasal sinus and have no endoscopically visible component. | | | The condition of an ethmoid hematoma is a hematoma that forms in the complex bony structure that exists in the nasal passages between the eyes. | | | It is important to define the area affected by the hematoma and whether there is sinusal involvement or not as that has implications as far as treatment with the degree of invasiveness of the surgical procedure and prognosis is concerned. |

| | Medical therapy: Medical therapy for acute ethmoid sinusitis is geared toward eradicating the infection, opening the ostium, restoring the mucociliary function, and relief of pain. | | | The infundibulum of the ethmoid represents a cleft that is demarcated by the uncinate process on its medial side and the lamina papyracea on its lateral side (Yanagisawa, 1997). | | | Contraindications: Surgical intervention for acute ethmoid sinusitis is contraindicated in poor surgical candidates who are unable to undergo the risks of anesthesia. |

| | However, observing mucociliary transport within the ethmoid sinus is more difficult than doing so within the maxillary sinus. | | | The ostium can be found in the posterior and medial aspect of the bulla (hiatus semilunaris superior), as mentioned by Hechl et al (figure, B). | | | Care should be taken not to break the thin medial bulla wall and thereby create a false passage. |

| | Because of the paucity of information in the literature regarding post-endoscopic ethmoid mucoceles, Dr. Busaba and colleagues sought to determine the post-endoscopic incidence of this complication. | | | SAN DIEGO, CA -- September 22, 2002 -- Postoperative ethmoid mucoceles may be just as likely to develop after endoscopic ethmoidectomy as they are after external and open procedures, according to Dr. Nicolas Busaba, assistant professor of otolaryngology at Harvard Medical School in Boston. | | | "As with external procedures, an ethmoid mucocele may form as a late complication of endoscopic ethmoidectomy," he said. |

| | The "ethmoid bone" is located in front of the sphenoid bone. | | | Portions of the ethmoid bone also form sections of the cranial floor, eye sockets, and nasal cavity walls. | | | It consists of two masses, one on each side of the nasal cavity, which are joined horizontally by thin "cribriform plates." These plates form part of the roof of the nasal cavity, and nerves (ethmoidal cells) associated with the sense of smell pass through tiny openings in them. |
