Study Notes
- Dr. Kim Jong-un discusses different sinus lesions and their pathology and diagnosis.
- Mucosal thickening can be caused by inflammation and root apex inflammation of posterior maxillary teeth.
- Mucus retention cyst is caused by mucus accumulation due to the obstruction of the mucous gland duct of the paranasal sinus or cystic changes of the inflammatory thickened mucous membranes.
- Polyps are lesions that protrude from the maxillary sinus membrane and are usually located in the sinus of the floor.
- Enterolith is caused by the calcification of foreign bodies or stagnant mucus within the maxillary sinus.
- Fungal infections and malignant tumors in the maxillary sinus are rare but may require surgery and relevant treatment.
- The thickness of the mucosal membrane can be observed on radiographic images, and a thickening of over 3mm is diagnosed as mucositis.
- Mucosal thickening can improve after tooth extraction or bone graft surgery.
- Mucus retention cyst appears as a slight radio-opaque dome shape on radiographs and does not affect adjacent anatomical structures.
- Surgical intervention may be needed for some sinus lesions, and relevant specialists should be consulted.
- Patient referred from private dental clinic due to oroentrol fistula after extraction
- CT scan revealed radicular cyst within sinus cavity
- Surgery performed to remove cyst and fistula healed
- Impacted wisdom tooth caused integers assist within sinus
- CT scan revealed independent cyst with tooth inside
- Accurate diagnosis of sinus lesions important for successful implant treatment
- Use of panoramic image and CT scan necessary for accurate diagnosis
- Different sinus lesions include mucosal thickening and mucous retention cyst
- Surgical plan based on accurate diagnosis leads to successful implant treatment
