Examination using modern low dose Multislice-CT (MS-CT) in otorhinolaryngology in a six-week-old baby.

A 6-week-old girl suffered from a growing and recurrently bleeding mass of unrecognizable origin, obstructing the left nose. Using low-dose Multislice-CT the exact diagnostic localization could be found within one minute in the sleeping baby without sedation or general anesthesia. The result of this imaging enabled the successful complete microscopic removal of a hemangioma from the left inferior turbinate. Follow-up after 15 months showed normal nasal finds.
