Abstract
|
|
|
|
The common causes of anosmia include sinonasal disorder, post-upper respiratory infection, trauma and chemicals. Intracranial tumor also frequently cause anosmia, so it is not easy to diagnose an intracranial tumor in patients who present with no definite related symptoms other than anosmia. Therefore, otolaryngologists should focus their attention on these disorders when they see patients with anosmia. We have experienced a case of olfactory groove menigioma presenting with only anosmia. We herein report this case with a brief review of the literature.
