Summary
Endoscopic surgery effectively removes foreign bodies from the maxillary sinus. Postoperative care typically involves local antibacterial therapy, ensuring successful patient outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Otolaryngology
- Medical Imaging
- Surgical Procedures
Background:
- Foreign bodies in the maxillary sinus present a clinical challenge.
- Accurate diagnosis and effective removal are crucial for patient recovery.
Purpose of the Study:
- To characterize methods for extracting foreign bodies from the maxillary sinus.
- To outline features of postoperative treatment for affected patients.
Main Methods:
- Endoscopic endonasal surgery, primarily via the inferior nasal passage.
- Computed tomography (CT) for diagnosis.
- Analysis of treatment experience for 124 patients.
Main Results:
- Endoscopic endonasal removal is effective for nearly all types of foreign bodies.
- Computed tomography is the most reliable diagnostic tool.
- Local antibacterial therapy is generally sufficient postoperatively.
Conclusions:
- Endoscopic endonasal surgery is a viable method for maxillary sinus foreign body extraction.
- CT imaging is essential for diagnosis.
- Standard postoperative care with local antibiotics is effective.
