33
Q

ODONTOGENIC SINUSITIS
ETIOLOGY

A

1- Nasal causes (ENT)
2- Odontogenic Causes
3- Other causes

34
Q

ODONTOGENIC SINUSITIS

A

➢ Chronic periodontitis (granuloma)
Contiguity mechanism / continuity of sinus mucosa and antral teeth
Caries –> Necrosis –> Granuloma
➢ Acute suppurative apical periodontitis
Acute suppurative apical periodontitis–> Pus breaks into the maxillary
sinus–> EMPYEMA
➢ Odontogenic suppurative cellulitis – } drains into the maxillary
sinus
➢ Osteitis and osteomyelitis after extraction
➢ No antral teeth through a subperiosteal abscess
➢ Radicular and dentigerous cysts
— } They usually reject the sinus mucosa:
- Sinus mucosa adhesions to the capsule of the cyst
- Acute infections- Pus in sinus cavity–> EMPYEMA
➢ Periodontal diseases
➢ Iatrogenic causes (Currently 2º cause)

35
Q

ACUTE MAXILLARY SINUSITIS:
CLINICAL SYMPTOMS

A
  • Etiology: allergic, viral and bacterial. Uncommon odontogenic cause.
    Last 1 month
  • Pain, irradiation to the orbit, frontal, zygomatic and alveolar region.
    Headaches
  • Swelling of the infraorbital soft tissue
  • Catarrhal purulent secretion: 1º fluid —- 2º purulent
  • Rhinoscopy: edema and redness of the nasal turbinates
    mucopurulent secretions in the middle
    meatus
  • Cacosmia
  • Systemic involvement
  • If oroantral communication: mucosal prolapse
36
Q

CHRONIC SINUSITIS

A
  • More usual: odontogenic cause. Lasts 3 weeks
    to 3 months
  • Slight symptoms
  • Characteristic nasal syndrome: vasomotor rhinitis:
  • nasal itching and nasal obstruction of the affected side
    -paroxysmal sneezing producing watery rhinorrhea
  • If fistula:
  • Liquid reflux from the oral cavity
  • Oral polyps
  • If the immune status of the patients is good and there is not a
    rhinogenic component: the evolution is usually asymptomatic (casual
    diagnosis)
  • Irregular hyperplastic mucosa: sinus cavity occupation
37
Q

SINUS EMPYEMA

A
  • Purulent accumulation in the maxillary sinus
  • Obliterated ostium
  • Cessation of ciliary activity
  • Sinus pressure increases: ACUTE PAIN
  • Infraorbital and cheek edema
  • RX: fluid levels. They change with head movements
38
Q

ODONTOGENIC SINUSITIS
TREATMENT

A

Intranasal antrostomy with endoscopic surgery
- Surgical creation of a drainage opening in the sinus
- Removal of hyperplastic mucosa, foreign bodies…
- Facilitates washings
- Samples for culture can be taken
Caldwell-Luc
- In chronic maxillary sinusitis with irreversible lesions
- Wide opening of the anterolateral wall of the sinus
- Excision, curettage of the mucosa

39
Q

OROANTRAL COMMUNICATIONS

A
  • Lack of continuity between oral cavity and
    maxillary sinus.
  • 3 planes affected:
    – Sinus mucosa
    – Maxillary bone and/or palate bone
    – Oral mucosa
  • Canal covered by epithelium
40
Q

ETIOLOGY

A

1)Proximity of the apex
2)Sinus pathologies causing communications
3)Iatrogenic cause
4)Infectious cause

41
Q

TREATMENT

A
  • First: resolution of the maxillary sinusitis. If it is not
    treated the perforation will recur
    ▪ - Consists of two phases:
    ▪ 1- Maxillary sinus intervention
    ▪ 2- Closure of oroantral communication
42
Q

1- Maxillary sinus intervention

A

a- Caldwell Luc approach
– Indicated in chronic sinusitis, polyps, cysts, mucoceles,
communications and trauma
b- Cleaning with imaging techniques: sinuscope
A micro camera is introduced in the nasoantral meatus and throught an
antrostomy of the anterior wall the diseased sinus mucosa is removed.

43
Q

A- Caldwell Luc approach

A

Removal of diseased sinus mucosa, providing ventilation of the antrum
that makes the reepithelialization easier
1-Incision
2-Flap reflection
3-Osteotomy
4-Removal of the sinus mucosa
5-Nasoantral perforation
6-Nasoantral drainage
7-Suture
