Spontaneous Rhinorrhea Induced by Metastatic Carcinoma of the Sphenoid Bone

Abstract
|
|
|
We have presented a case of spontaneous rhinorrhea which showed recurrence of supprative meningitis and destruction of the sella turcica and sphenoid sinus on the plain skull roentgenograms.
By transantral and transnasal routs, the portion. of sphenoid sinus could easily be approached and exposed.
Surgery with microscgpe easily permitted an identification .of the pointt of cerebrospinal fluid fistula ´and the repair of it with graft and packing of temporal muscle fascia and pieces of gelfoam.
The histopathology of sphenoid bone biopsied was an infiltrating carcinoma.
