- Sinonasal (Schneiderian) Tumors in the Temporal Bone: Case Series and Systematic Review
This systematic review of patients with middle ear sinonasal-type tumors with a history of primary sinonasal tumors shows a tumor pattern supporting the hypothesis that the Eustachian tube may facilitate the spread of sinonasal neoplasms from the sinonasal cavity to the temporal bone.
- Efficacy of MR Neurography of Peripheral Trigeminal Nerves: Correlation of Sunderland Grade versus Neurosensory Testing
The current diagnostic reference standard for peripheral trigeminal nerve injuries is neurosensory testing in combination with clinical findings to determine treatment. MRN provides an alternative method for the diagnosis and staging of patients with PTN because of its ability to delineate anatomy and the exact location of injury. This study correlates injury grading based on NST and MRN, demonstrating similar rates of agreement with surgical findings in lower-grade injuries but higher rates of agreement between MRN and surgical findings than NST in higher-grade injuries.
