The agger nasi cell is an important structure that affects frontal
recess anatomy. The agger nasi cell is a part of the anterior
ethmoid sinus and it can be seen on coronal CT scans of the sinus
in views anterior to the middle turbinates. The case involves a
fungus ball in the agger nasi cell, which is a rare occurrence.
While the pathogenesis was unclear, a possible cause for the fungus
ball may have been an issue with the drainage pathway due to middle
meatal obstruction. |
