The involvement of maxillary sinuses in patients taking bone-related medications has not been comprehensively considered in the literature, mostly dental. Considering the fact that paranasal sinuses are often captured in dental radiographs, it is incumbent upon dental practitioners to recognize abnormal presentations in the paranasal sinuses to ensure the appropriate management of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). We present a case of a giant cell tumor (GCT) with atypical chronic sinusitis manifestation leading to MRONJ.
服用与骨相关药物的患者上颌窦受累情况在文献中(大多是牙科文献)尚未得到全面考虑。鉴于鼻窦在牙科X光片中经常被拍到,牙科从业者有责任识别鼻窦的异常表现,以确保对药物相关性颌骨坏死(MRONJ)进行适当管理。我们报告一例巨细胞瘤(GCT)伴有非典型慢性鼻窦炎表现导致MRONJ的病例。
