Patients present to physicians with headache or facial pain and are
certain that it is a "sinus headache.? Specialists of all types -
otolaryngologists, allergists, neurologists, internists, and
emergency physicians are confronted almost daily with these
patients. "Headache in Otolaryngology: Rhinogenic and Beyond?
describes headaches ascribed to other causes - migraine as well as
headaches that actually are a result of sinusitis. This volume
addresses the need for expertise of an otolaryngologist who can
obtain a history of nasal and sinus disease, evaluate the interior
of the nose, and correlate it to a computed tomographic (CT) scan,
along with collaboration of neurologists/headache specialists.
Because headaches are often a symptom of potentially dangerous
medical conditions that may need emergency work-up and referral to
the appropriate physician, information in this volume identifies
these emergency conditions for the clinician. Topics include:
Confusion about sinus headache; Diagnosing Adult and Pediatric
Headache; Imaging for the headache patient; TMJ head pain; Signs of
dangerous headache; Vertiginous headache; Rhinogenic headache;
Medical treatment of headache; and Surgery for headache.
