    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Osteomas are benign bone tumors that can occur in the craniofacial region.
    • Accurate diagnosis and surgical planning are crucial for effective management.

    Observation:

    • This study reviews clinical and histologic features of osteomas.
    • Computed tomography (CT) in coronal and axial planes is highlighted for evaluation.
    • A series of 14 patients over five years is presented, with two cases discussed in detail.

    Findings:

    • Two surgical approaches are described for frontal sinus osteomas: brow incision for orbital tumors and coronal incision with osteoplastic operation for sinus tumors.
    • Unusually rapid tumor growth was documented in one patient via serial X-rays.
    • Diagnostic imaging techniques, including CT, aid in precise evaluation.
