Abstract

The authors analyse rhinological and otoneurological symptoms in 50 patients with benign craniofacial tumors verified at surgical interventions, computed tomography, NMR-tomography. The tumors involved anterior parts of the brain stem, nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, 34 tumors were diagnosed as meningiomas. Clinical correlations with tumor histology and topography were noted. Specific ENT preoperative, postoperative and long-term complications are described. The diagnosis and treatment of the above patients need cooperation with specialists of the allied fields: neurosurgeons, neuroroentgenologists, otoneurologists, neuro-ophthalmologists.
