Abstract
Purpose The olfactory groove (OG) is a common site of iatrogenic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak during endoscopic sinus surgery. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of CSF leak during endoscopic removal of osteomas involving the OG and identify CT findings indicating increased risk of this complication. Methods A retrospective review was conducted of patients operated on for frontoethmoidal osteoma from 11 years in a single institution. A retrospective review of the literature, 1999 to 2019, of perioperative complications in patients operated on for frontoethmoidal osteoma using endoscopic or combined approaches. Results Case series: 73 patients were identified including 17 with the OG involvement. The only case of CSF leak occurred in a patient with spongious part of osteoma at the OG. Among six osteomas with spongious component at the OG, one was detached and five had to be drilled down, leaving a small remnant in four. In contrast, all the 11 osteomas with ivory part at the OG were safely detached and completely removed from the OG after debulking. The prevalence of CSF leak was not statistically different between the patients without and with involvement of the OG. Systematic review of the literature: Among the 273 identified patients there were 8 cases of intraoperative CSF leaks (3%) including 2 from the OG (0.7%). Conclusion Involvement of the OG does not significantly increase the risk of intraoperative CSF leak. However, this risk may be increased in patients with the spongious part of the tumor attached to the OG.

Abstract
Frontal sinus osteomas are benign bone-forming neoplasms. Ongoing advancements in endoscopic surgery have allowed less invasive surgical approaches to be adopted for removal. The authors systematically reviewed the literature to provide analysis and recommendations for management.One hundred ninety-three publications encompassing 1399 patients met inclusion, with mean age 42.1 ± 13.8 years and a male predominance (59.2%). Symptoms included pain (70.8%); orbital/ocular (20.7%); sinonasal (36.4%); neurologic (6.0%); other (14.5%); and asymptomatic (4.8%). Osteoma was isolated to the frontal sinus (82.9%) or extended into the ethmoid (16.6%), maxillary (0.3%), and sphenoid sinuses (0.2%). There was intracranial extension in 9.5% and intraorbital extension in 18.7%. Of those proceeding to surgery, majority (59.8%) underwent open approaches, followed by endoscopic (25.0%) and combined (11.5%). A significant (P < 0.01) increase in proportion of cases utilizing endoscopic approaches versus open/combined was observed over the period studied. Seventy-one postoperative complications were reported, in 7.5% of endoscopic cases, 27% of open, and 8.8% of combined. Complications were more likely in open/combined surgery, compared with endoscopic (22.3% versus 7.5%, P < 0.001). In 181 patients, completeness of resection was reported (complete resection; 87.8%) and found to be a significant predictor (P < 0.01) for disease recurrence/progression. Mean length of stay for the endoscopic group was 3.1 ± 1.3 days, compared with 7.9 ± 3.1 for open/combined (P < 0.0001).In the management of frontal sinus osteoma, indications for selecting endoscopic versus open approaches have expanded over the past 30 years, as techniques, equipment, and understanding of pathophysiology have evolved. Where endoscopic approaches are possible, they are associated with reduced morbidity and length of stay compared with open approaches.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteomas are osseous tumors that primarily occur at the skull, in particular the paranasal sinus system. Surgical tumor resection is the "gold standard" treatment in symptomatic osteomas. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of surgical approaches (endoscopic, open, combined) and to provide a step-by-step approach for patients' management. METHODS Fifty-eight patients (31 m, 27 f, 42.1 ± 15.3 years) that were treated between 2001 and 2015 at our department were included in this retrospective, single center study. RESULTS In almost half of cases (n = 28, 48.3%) endoscopic, endonasal approaches were used for tumor resection while open (n = 11, 19%) or combined (n = 19, 32.8%) approaches were used in the rest of the cohort. Open or combined approaches were applied in patients suffering from osteomas localized in the maxillary or frontal sinuses only. CONCLUSION Beside interviews, clinical examination, nasal endoscopy, and computed tomography are crucial for diagnosis of paranasal sinus osteomas. Magnet resonance imaging can be useful in extensive pathologies. The preoperative selection of the optimal approach for osteoma resection might be most challenging in patients' management. Although useful recommendations regarding the use of surgical approaches have been published, technical requirements and surgical experience of surgeons have to be considered in the limitations of endoscopic approaches. If there are doubts about the resectability of an osteoma by an endoscopic approach, the surgical procedure may be started endoscopically, and, if necessary, it can be combined with an external approach.

Abstract
Background Osteoma of the paranasal sinuses are benign bony masses most commonly found in the frontal sinus. In the past, due to the anatomical complexity of the frontal sinus, these often required an open approach, but with the invention of angled tools and endoscopes, many rhinologists are now attempting endoscopic or combined resections. No large systematic reviews currently exist that describe the surgical management of frontal sinus osteoma. Objective To perform a systematic review detailing the surgical resection of frontal sinus osteoma. Review Methods: A systematic literature review was performed using PubMed, Embase, and Ovid databases. Data extracted included demographics, clinical presentation, radiologic, histologic findings, surgical approach, and recurrence. Results A total of 32 studies, with 477 surgically resected tumors, were included in the analysis. Sex data were available for 179 patients (M:F, 93:86), with a mean age of 43.2 years. All resected tumors presented symptomatically: facial pain/headache (80.2%), recurrent sinusitis (30.5%), mucocele (4.3%), cosmetic deformity other than proptosis (12.8%), and proptosis (5.5%). Transnasal endoscopic surgery alone was the most common surgical approach utilized (44.9%), followed by open osteoplastic flaps (36.9%) and endoscopic assisted (18.2%). Osteoma with anterior (79%) and posterior (73%) attachments were treated statistically more often with endoscopic approach compared with floor (42%) and extrasinus (50%) attachment ( P < .0005). There was no statistical difference in approach to masses that crossed the sagittal plane extending from the lamina papyracea (63% endoscopic, 29% endoscopic assisted, 8% open, P = .21). Mean follow-up was 29.7 months, with recurrence or persistent residual disease occurring in 12 patients. Conclusion Despite the increasing use of endoscopic alone procedures for expanding indications, patients may still require an open or endoscopic assisted approach for complete removal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoma is the most common benign tumor of the paranasal sinuses. The clinical characteristics and treatment of this disease remain controversial. The aim of this study is to determine the appropriate method of treatment approach according to the features of osteomas. METHODS Forty-one patients with paranasal sinus osteomas were included in the study. According to the location and the size of tumors, patients were followed up or operated. Surgical treatment was performed via external, endoscopic, or combined approaches for symptomatic patients. Routine physical and radiological evaluations were performed for follow-up in asymptomatic patients. RESULTS Paranasal sinus osteomas were found most common in frontal sinus (n = 26, 63.4%) followed by ethmoid sinus (n = 10, 24.3%), maxillary sinus (n = 4, 9.7%), and sphenoid sinus (n = 1, 2.4%). Of the patients with frontal sinus osteomas, the endoscopic approach was performed in 11 patients, external approach (osteoplastic flap) in 9, and combined (external + endoscopic) approach in 5 patients. Endoscopic approach was preferred in all patients with ethmoid osteoma. The combination of Caldwell-Luc procedure and endoscopic approach was performed in 1 patient with maxillary sinus osteoma. In 3 patients, who underwent osteoplastic flap technique, mucocele developed in the postoperative period. Partial loss of vision developed postoperatively in 1 patient with a giant ethmoid osteoma. There were no other complications and recurrence in an average of 29 months follow-up. CONCLUSION Paranasal sinus osteomas are rare, slow-growing benign lesions, with potentially serious complications. Main treatment option for sphenoid and ethmoid sinus and other symptomatic osteomas are surgical resection. Radiographic follow-up is necessary for asymptomatic lesions. Selection of surgical resection method depends on tumor location and size. Patients should be observed for recurrence with periodic examination and imaging techniques. Follow-up should be performed at least in 1-year intervals after the surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1c.

Abstract
Fibro-osseous benign lesions rarely affect the sinonasal tract and are divided into 3 different entities, namely osteoma, fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma. They share several clinical, radiological and histological similarities, but have different behaviours. Ossifying fibroma, and in particular the "juvenile" histological subtype, may have a locally aggressive evolution and a high risk for recurrence if removal is incomplete. The purpose of the present study is to compare the clinical behaviour of ossifying fibroma with the other benign fibro-osseous lesions; highlight different behaviour between the histological subtypes; compare the advantages, limitations and outcomes of an endoscopic endonasal approach with reports in the literature. We retrospectively reviewed 11 patients treated for sinonasal ossifying fibroma at a tertiary care centre. All patients underwent CT scan, and MRI was performed in cases of cranial base involvement or recurrence. Pre-operative biopsy was performed in cases where it was possible to use an endoscopic approach. One patient underwent pre-operative embolisation with ipsilateral visual loss after the procedure. Depending on its location, removal of the tumour was performed using an endoscopic (n = 7), or an external (n = 3) or combined (n = 1) approach. Histopathologically, 5 patients presented the conventional type, 5 the juvenile psammomatoid variant, which was associated in 1 case with an aneurismal bone cyst, and 1 case presented the trabecular juvenile variant. Three patients affected by the juvenile psammomatoid histological variant presented invasion of the skull base and underwent a subtotal removal that subsequently required, due to the regrowth of the remnant, a transbasal approach. Clinical, radiological and histological findings should all be considered to establish differential diagnosis among fibrous osseous lesions. More studies are necessary to conclude if the localisation and extension of the disease at the time of diagnosis is more important than the histological variant. An endoscopic approach is the first choice in most of cases even if an external open approach may be necessary in selected patients.

Abstract
Endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery is the standard procedure for surgery of most paranasal sinus diseases. Appropriate frame conditions provided, the respective procedures are safe and successful. These prerequisites encompass appropriate technical equipment, anatomical oriented surgical technique, proper patient selection, and individually adapted extent of surgery. The range of endonasal sinus operations has dramatically increased during the last 20 years and reaches from partial uncinectomy to pansinus surgery with extended surgery of the frontal (Draf type III), maxillary (grade 3-4, medial maxillectomy, prelacrimal approach) and sphenoid sinus. In addition there are operations outside and beyond the paranasal sinuses. The development of surgical technique is still constantly evolving. This article gives a comprehensive review on the most recent state of the art in endoscopic sinus surgery according to the literature with the following aspects: principles and fundamentals, surgical techniques, indications, outcome, postoperative care, nasal packing and stents, technical equipment.

Abstract
CONCLUSION The incidence of paranasal sinus (PNS) osteoma was 6.4%. The most common site of PNS osteoma was the ethmoid sinus. All surgically treated patients underwent endoscopic surgery, and there was no recurrence in any patient. Technical improvements, including an image guidance system, extended the indications for endoscopic surgery for PNS osteomas, especially in the frontal sinus region. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence and location of PNS osteomas detected by computed tomography (CT) scan at our hospital, and to describe our experience in the surgical treatment of PNS osteomas. METHODS This study was performed on 1724 patients undergoing CT scans because of suspected sinus disease between 2004 and 2013. Endoscopic surgery was performed in 34 symptomatic patients. Medical records of the patients were reviewed, and clinical findings and treatment outcomes were investigated. RESULTS PNS osteomas were detected in 110 patients (6.4%). Triple osteomas were detected in two patients. Double osteomas were detected in seven patients. In total, 121 lesions were identified as PNS osteomas. The ethmoid sinus was the most commonly affected site (57.0%), followed by the frontal sinus (25.6%), frontal recess (9.1%), maxillary sinus (5.0%), olfactory fissure (1.7%), and sphenoid sinus (1.7%) in descending order of frequency. Thirty-three patients were surgically treated for PNS osteomas through a purely endoscopic approach, and one patient with a frontal sinus osteoma underwent combined endoscopic surgery and frontal trephination. Image-guided surgery was performed in nine patients with involvement of the orbit and skull base, including the frontal sinus/recess. There were no major surgical complications and there was no tumor recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to investigate the clinical features and the growth rate of craniofacial osteomas. METHODS Retrospective chart review was performed of 200 cases of craniofacial osteomas diagnosed from January 2001 to September 2011. Data pertinent to patient and osteoma lesion characteristics were collected. Histology of operated cases was reviewed. Computer tomography (CT) charts were reviewed and those with multiple images were analyzed for growth characteristics. RESULTS One hundred forty-nine patients met our inclusion criteria. Eighty-nine percent of these osteomas were found incidentally. Forty-three percent were in the frontal sinus. Fifteen percent of the patients complained of headaches and only 6.71% of patients with osteoma had headaches congruent with osteoma location. Thirty-one percent of CT scans had sinus mucosal disease; only 8% had mucosal disease adjacent to the osteoma. Ten of the 149 patients underwent surgery for cosmetic and/or rapidly growing osteomas. Thirteen patients had intestinal tubular adenoma, and one was genetically positive for Gardner's syndrome. Fifty-two patients had multiple CT scans that were included in growth rate analysis. The mean linear growth rate of osteomas was estimated to be 0.117 mm/yr (95% CI, 0.004, 0.230) in maximal dimension, assuming linear growth. A descriptive analysis of osteoma growth divided the osteomas into several intervals and studied the growth rate separately in each interval. The median change in maximum dimension was different in each interval in a nonsystematic manner, ranging from -0.066 mm, over 3- to 9-month interval (interquartile range [IQR] = -0.404-1.069), to 0.369 mm over 9- to 15-month interval (IQR = -0.032-0.855), and 0.082 mm over 45- to 51-month interval (IQR = -0.000-0.197). There was no significant association between tumor size, location, or complications. CONCLUSION Craniofacial osteomas are slow-growing lesions with no specific growth pattern and rare complications. Their clinical behavior is ill defined and justifies a conservative approach toward asymptomatic lesions with close radiological follow-up.
