Study Notes

Dr. Kim Jong-un is discussing pathology and diagnosis of maxillary sinus lesions.
X-ray plays an important role in diagnosing sinusitis, along with panoramic radiography and CT.
Acute and chronic sinusitis are caused by nasal allergy, foreign matter, bone grafts, or septal deviation.
Symptoms of acute sinusitis include fever, headache, facial fullness, pain in the upper posterior area, toothache, nasal obstruction, and post-like nasal discharge.
Medication, including antibiotics and pseudoephedrine, is prescribed for acute sinusitis before surgical treatment.
Case studies are presented to demonstrate the diagnosis and treatment of acute sinusitis.
Antibiotics, such as augmentin, are prescribed for two weeks to treat acute sinusitis.
CT scans are used to monitor the progression of sinusitis and the effectiveness of treatment.
Panoramic radiography is used to provide a big picture for implant treatment, while CT scans are used for more accurate information.
Dr. Kim Jong-un emphasizes the importance of using x-ray, panoramic radiography, and CT scans for accurate diagnosis and treatment of maxillary sinus lesions.
Patient had oral anterior fistula and maxillary osteo was maintained with medication but symptoms worsened
Endoscopic sinus surgery was planned and performed to restore maxillary sinus function
Panoramic image is insufficient in diagnosing sinusitis, CT scan is necessary to accurately assess the condition of the sinuses
Antibiotics such as augmentin, cephalosporin, adisromycin or clindamycin are prescribed for acute sinusitis
Chronic sinusitis can result in pain, headache, and posterior nasal drip for several months to years
Bone graft is not recommended for chronic sinusitis as it can result in infection
Chronic sinusitis can be caused by chemical damage, maxillary ostium blockage, inflammation associated with teeth, root apex inflammation, and abscess, as well as continued periodontal disease
CT scan is necessary to accurately assess chronic sinusitis and prescribe appropriate antibiotics
Implants can be placed without bone graft for chronic sinusitis, but shorter implants may be necessary
Cone beam CT is necessary for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning for successful implant surgery.
