The purpose of this study is to analyze if there is any statistical correlation between the surgery's complexity (easy to difficult-depending on the anatomical conditions) and the patient's sex, type of edentulism, and left or right side of the maxilla.
Cone beam computed tomography records of 1192 maxillary sinuses were evaluated, measured, and statistically analyzed with respect to patient sex, type of edentulism, and left or right side, taking into consideration Wen's proposed sinus septum classification.
Our research suggests that most sinus augmentation procedures in patients presenting antral septum fall into the Moderate A category (31.94%) and that there is not a correlation between the surgery's complexity (easy to difficult) and the patient's sex, type of edentulism and left or right side of the maxilla.
We suggest a minor modification to Wen's classification in view of the fact that our findings revealed a combination of medio-lateral and antero-posterior septa that we could not classify in one of the existing categories.
本研究的目的是分析手术的复杂性（根据解剖条件分为简单到困难）与患者的性别、无牙症类型以及上颌的左侧或右侧之间是否存在任何统计学相关性。
对1192例上颌窦的锥形束计算机断层扫描记录进行评估、测量，并根据患者性别、无牙症类型以及左侧或右侧，考虑温氏提出的鼻窦隔分类进行统计学分析。
我们的研究表明，存在窦隔的患者中，大多数鼻窦增高手术属于中度A类（31.94%），并且手术的复杂性（简单到困难）与患者的性别、无牙症类型以及上颌的左侧或右侧之间不存在相关性。
鉴于我们的研究结果显示存在中侧和前后隔的组合，而我们无法将其归类到现有的任何一类中，我们建议对温氏分类进行轻微修改。
