Abstract
Conclusion. We could not demonstrate an effect of adenoid vegetation on development of paranasal sinus anatomic variations. Objective. To investigate whether adenoid vegetation has an impact on anatomic variations of paranasal sinuses. Patients and methods. Fifty-six children with adenoid vegetation and 25 children without adenoid vegetation were enrolled in the study. The paranasal sinus anatomic variations were investigated via coronal section CT scans. Results. No statistically significant difference was noticed between children with and without adenoid vegetation. In addition, no significant correlation with respect to age of children and anatomic variations was determined.
