ABSTRACT

Objective: to describe the anatomical variants and rhinosinusal inflammatory pathology in patients with headache under study. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional, observational study, where all patients with sinus pathology and headache were included from January to October 2017. Computed tomography of the skull and paranasal sinuses was performed on all patients. Demographic, clinical and tomographic variables were collected. Results: We included 73 patients, the most frequent anatomical findings were: deviation of the nasal septum n=28; concha bullosa n=10; deviation of the nasal septum with spur n=9; paradoxical turbinate n=5; nasal spur n=4; other pathologies n=17. From the total of the sample of 30 patients, rhinosinusal inflammatory pathology was present in order of frequency: maxillary sinus sinusitis n=10; retention cysts n=4 (in maxillary sinuses), ethmoidomaxillary sinusitis n=4; ethmoidal n=3; sphenoidal n=3; pansinusitis n=2, frontoethmoidal n=2, frontal n=2. Conclusions: The frequency found in the anatomical variants and rhinosinusal inflammatory pathology coincides with the data reported in the literature.
