An unilateral maxillary sinusitis is frequently caused by dental pathology. An odontogenic cyst in the maxillary sinus usually lacks accompanying symptoms of infection. In three patients, a 35-year-old man and two women aged 16 and 28, an odontogenic cyst in the maxillary sinus was diagnosed. Consultation of a maxillofacial surgeon is needed because orthopantomographic imaging is diagnostically most helpful. In these patients combined treatment by an ENT surgeon and a maxillofacial surgeon is important.
单侧上颌窦炎常由牙齿病变引起。上颌窦牙源性囊肿通常缺乏感染的伴随症状。在三名患者中,一名35岁男性和两名分别为16岁和28岁的女性被诊断出上颌窦牙源性囊肿。由于曲面断层成像在诊断上最有帮助,因此需要咨询颌面外科医生。对这些患者而言,耳鼻喉科医生和颌面外科医生的联合治疗很重要。
