This pneumatization is a rare phenomenon to in the inferior turbinate. We report the case of an incidental finding of inferior turbinate concha bullosa in a 30- year-old female who presented with nasal obstruction and headache. While evaluating the patient\u2019s computed tomography image, a pneumatized right inferior turbinate accidentally found. Our patient treated medically without surgical intervention and showed good improvement in her symptoms. Physicians should be aware of the presence of such a rare variation that may lead to serious nasal symptoms if it is large enough, they should keep it in the differential diagnosis and with deal with it accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Elamaireh-1.pdf\">Download PDF<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anas Elamaireh, Basem Alkousheh, Abdullah Al-Tarawneh, Mohammed Al-kofahi Department of otorhinolaryngology, Jordanian Royal Medical Services, Amman, Jordan *Corresponding Author: Anas Elamaireh; E-mail: dr.anas.ent@hotmail.com AbstractThe nasal cavity structures are prone to different anatomical variations; one of these is concha bullosa, which best known as pneumatization of the nasal turbinate.
