How much do you know about Maxillary Sinus Disorders?

Study Notes

Paranasal sinuses develop as an invagination from nasal fossa into their respective bones.
Maxillary sinus is the first to develop and is most commonly developed in the second month of intrauterine life.
Intrinsic diseases associated with maxillary sinus include mucositis, sinusitis, retention pseudocyst, polyps, and antral lith.
Extrinsic diseases associated with maxillary sinus include various inflammatory diseases, tumors, dental structures, and bone dysplasias.
Mucositis is characterized by localized thickening of the mucosa and is often asymptomatic.
Sinusitis is characterized by generalized inflammatory condition of the sinus and can be acute or chronic.
Retention pseudocyst occurs due to blockage of secretory duct of zero mucous gland in the sinus mucosa.
Polyps are taken mucous membrane of sinus which forms irregular folds.
Antral lith occurs due to deposition of mineral salts around an Ibis or stagnant or in feces sated mucous or cellular debris.
Mucosal is an expanding destructive region due to blocked sinus ostium and leads to thinning displacement and destruction of sinus.
The maxillary sinus can be affected by intrinsic and extrinsic diseases.
Benign neoplasms of the maxillary sinus are rare, with papilloma and osteoma being the most common.
Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of malignant neoplasm affecting the maxillary sinus.
Symptoms of maxillary sinus neoplasms depend on which wall of the sinus is involved.
Inflammatory lesions of the maxillary sinus can be caused by dental infections or periosteal newborn formation.
Or antigen exists and benign neoplasms are the most common extrinsic lesions affecting the maxillary sinus.
Differential diagnoses for or antigen exists include retention pseudocyst, sinusitis, and double cortex.
Born a dysplasia, such as peripheral and florid osseous dysplasia, can also affect the maxillary sinus.
Imaging features, such as CT scans and radiographs, can help diagnose maxillary sinus disorders.
Treatment options for maxillary sinus disorders include surgery and radiotherapy.
Fractured tooth roots may displace into the sinus.
Clinical features are similar to sinusitis.
Imaging features show radio-opaque mass.
Molar teeth or wood fragments are commonly displaced.
Localization is done through later maxillary or crucial view.
Management involves removal by Caravelle loose operation.
Anthro let's shape of radio opacity is a differential diagnosis.
Pulp canal presence helps in comparison.
Hyperallergic region from the floor of the maxillary sinus mimics root tip shape.
Both intrinsic and extrinsic pathologies are associated with maxillary sinuses.
