An Extremely Rare Cause of Headache; Osteoma of the Middle Concha Bullosa

摘要

Osteomas are benign, slow-growing tumors originating from bone tissue. Osteomas of the paranasal region, which are usually asymptomatic, are detected incidentally on tomographies taken for other medical needs. Paranasal sinus osteomas frequently localized in the frontal and ethmoid sinuses are among the infrequent reasons for headaches. In this case report, the authors submit the first case of an osteoma that was localized inside the middle concha bullosa and causing headache. It was successfully excised via an endoscopic endonasal approach without any complications.
