[Downward migration of the optic system after transsphenoidal approach of a giant eosinophilic adenoma (author's transl)].

Headache and visual impairment resulting from downward migration of the optic system in an acromegalic patient, occurred after one year postoperatively. A 25-year-old woman with eosinophilic adenoma was operated on via transsphenoidal approach and irradiated (5,000 rads) following the operation. After the operation, bitemporal hemianopia was thoroughly improved and serum HGH level was also markedly decreased after radiation therapy. One year later, headache and visual impairment recurred. Pneumoencephalogram revealed that the infundibular and optic recessus of the third ventricle were elongated and descended into the sella turcica. The second operation was performed by subfrontal approach and the optic system was found to be migrated into the sella, which we assumed to be the cause for the recurrence of the headache and visual field defect. In order to prevent this type of complication, it would be recommended to fill up the dead space in the sella with bone or cartilage fragments in addition to muscle pieces, as was suggested by Guiot et al.

[Eosinophilic adenoma of the nose and ethmoid bone simulating a malignant tumor].

A 82-year old woman patient was first diagnosed to have a dacryocystitis and was treated at the Department of Ophthalmology. Clinical examination and x-ray of the paranasal sinuses including tomographs led to the suspicion of a malignant, infiltratively growing tumour in the region of the left cheek and of the left ethmoidal cells. After endonasal removal of the tumour that obstructed the left nasal cavity and ethmoidal cells, histological diagnosis revealed an eosinophilic adenoma. Dacryocystitis had been caused secondarily by the impairment of lacrymal flow. Now, one year later, the patient is free from any recurrence and clinical or subjective signs and symptoms.
