An Unusual Presentation of Frontal Bony Defect with Pneumocephalus and its Management in an Elderly Patient  Shih-Tong Chen, Hung-Ching Lin, Jon-Kway Huang, Ying-Piao Wang  International Journal of Gerontology  Volume 9, Issue 1, Pages 54-56 (March 2015) DOI: 10.1016/j.ijge.2013.07.003 Copyright © 2015 Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Computed tomography reveals a focal bony defect (8 mm × 12 mm) of the superolateral wall of the left frontal sinus with pneumocephalus. International Journal of Gerontology 2015 9, 54-56DOI: (10.1016/j.ijge.2013.07.003) Copyright © 2015 Terms and Conditions

Fig. 2 (A) A frontal bony defect was discovered during surgery. The defect is covered by fascia lata graft, and the frontal sinus is partially obliterated by fat tissue. (B) Seven months after the surgery, the bony defect has repaired well and no obvious defect is noted by sinuscope.

Fig. 3 Computed tomography scan 12 months after the surgery reveals no pneumoencephalous. International Journal of Gerontology 2015 9, 54-56DOI: (10.1016/j.ijge.2013.07.003) Copyright © 2015 Terms and Conditions
