Özet
Pneumatization of the turbinates called concha bullosa is one of the most frequent anatomic variations of the nasal cavity. We report the first case of computed tomography findings of bilateral middle and inferior concha bullosa in a 13-year-old child with nasal obstruction. Here we describe a patient with extreme bilateral bullosa of inferior and middle conchas, as well as crista galli. The patient was treated successfully with endoscopic surgery of conchas. Nasal obstruction secondary to a bilateral turbinate bullosis in a child has not been described before. The clinicians should take this entity into consideration when evaluating the pediatric patients with nasal obstruction.
