Most osteomas are asymptomatic and located in the frontal sinus. In rare cases, they may grow to extend into the cranial or orbital cavities, resulting in atypical presentations. The authors presented an aggressive case of a frontoethmoidal sinus osteoma with intracranial extension of an inflammatory sinonasal polyp.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>OBSERVATIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 30-year-old man with a history of chronic sinusitis presented to the hospital after three episodes of loss of consciousness, chronic worsening of headache, and decreased sense of smell. Rhinoscopic examination showed mucosal polyps arising from the infundibulum and the superior meatus. Computed tomography showed a fibro-osseous mass in the left frontal sinus. Subsequent brain magnetic resonance imaging with and without contrast revealed a large, septated intracranial left frontal lesion approximately 6.5 cm in diameter that was compressing the underlying brain parenchyma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>LESSONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Intracranial extension of frontal sinus osteomas can have dire neurological implications. Early detection of lesions obstructing the paranasal sinuses outlet could prevent intracranial extension of the disease. The surgical approach to such tumors may be endonasal, open cranial, or a combination of both.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/case21105","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,24]],"date-time":"2021-05-24T03:02:53Z","timestamp":1621825373000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Giant frontal sinus osteoma and its potential consequences: illustrative case"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"Riyaq A.","family":"Farah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine, Gulf Medical University, Ajman, United Arab Emirates; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arturo","family":"Poletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Ear, Nose, and Throat"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aaron","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pathology, and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ramon","family":"Navarro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Neuroscience, American Hospital Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"b1","series-title":"Rhinology","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"54","DOI":"10.4193\/Rhino12.130","article-title":"Paranasal sinus osteoma: is there any association with anatomical variations?","volume":"51","author":"Janovic A","year":"2013","unstructured":"Janovic A, Antic S, Rakocevic Z, Djuric M.
