Summary

Odontogenic cysts in the maxillary sinus, often linked to dental issues, can cause unilateral maxillary sinusitis. Early diagnosis via orthopantomography and combined surgical treatment are crucial for effective management.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Otolaryngology
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Unilateral maxillary sinusitis is frequently associated with dental pathology.
  • Odontogenic cysts within the maxillary sinus often present without typical infection symptoms.

Observation:

  • Three cases of odontogenic cysts in the maxillary sinus are presented: a 35-year-old male and two females (aged 16 and 28).
  • These cysts were diagnosed in patients presenting with unilateral maxillary sinusitis.

Findings:

  • Orthopantomographic imaging is a key diagnostic tool for identifying odontogenic cysts in the maxillary sinus.
  • The diagnosis of odontogenic cysts requires consultation with a maxillofacial surgeon.

Implications:

  • Combined treatment involving an ENT surgeon and a maxillofacial surgeon is essential for optimal patient outcomes.
  • This highlights the importance of considering dental origins in cases of maxillary sinusitis.
