Orbital, intracranial, and osseous extra-sinus complications can arise from bacterial or fungal sinusitis. Odontogenic sinusitis (ODS) can cause extra-sinus complications, but its prevalence remains p...
To determine the frequency of ODS as a cause of operative extra-sinus infectious complications and describe clinical features of all complicated sinusitis cases....
A multi-institutional retrospective review was performed on all operative sinusitis-related extra-sinus complications from 2011 to 2020. ODS was diagnosed by sinus computed tomography (CT) and dental ...
Forty-five patients were included (mean age 55.5 years, 56% male). Of the extra-sinus complications, 40% were orbital only, 22% intracranial only, 13% osseous only, and 25% involved combined complicat...
ODS was the most common cause of operative extra-sinus infectious complications. Clinicians should consider ODS high on the differential diagnosis of all patients presenting with complicated sinusitis...
The microbiome plays a crucial role in odontogenic sinusitis (OS); however, the bacterial characteristics of the sinuses and connected dental regions in OS are poorly understood. In this study, nasal ...
The alpha diversity of the oral and nasal microbiomes in OS patients was higher than that in controls. Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) showed that oral samples clustered separately from nasal sam...
Odontogenic infection promotes structural and functional disorders of the nasal microbiome in OS. The interaction of dominant pathogens in the nasal and oral regions may promote the development of OS....
The purpose of this study is to characterize the presentation, outcomes, and barriers to care for White and non-White patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS)....
ESS is often successful in providing long-term relief for patients suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Literature that uses robust measures of socioeconomic status (SES) and barriers to care ...
A retrospective matched cohort study of patients who underwent ESS for CRS between 1/1/2015 and 6/1/2021 at a single tertiary care academic center was conducted. White and non-White patients were matc...
Of the 298 patients included in the study, 149 are White and 149 are non-White, 111 (37.2%) have CRS with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), 141 (47.3%) had allergic rhinitis, 90 (30.2%) had asthma and 22 (7.4...
Non-White patients undergoing ESS for CRS are more likely to present from areas with fewer resources and be underinsured. Using robust measures of SES, such as ADI, may allow for care to be tailored t...
The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the effect of corticobasal implant penetration in the nasal and maxillary sinuses on sinus health and implant survival rate in cases of severely a...
This retrospective study was conducted on thirty patients with 172 implants who underwent corticobasal implant treatment between 2014 and 2018. Implants were divided into two groups according to the p...
Despite the differences in implant penetration depths, no clinical signs of sinusitis were evident in any patient. One patient presented with transient epistaxis after the surgery, and 2 patients with...
Penetration of corticobasal implants in the maxillary sinus did not compromise the health of the maxillary sinus or implant survival rate....
Limited posterior maxillary bony support and maxillary sinus pneumatization present challenges in implant dentistry and increase the possibility of implant protrusion inside the maxillary and nasal ca...
Upper respiratory infections can be complicated by acute bacterial sinusitis in pediatric patients, and usually resolve with antibiotic therapy (DeMuri and Wald, 2011). However, intracranial complicat...
A 12-year-old female presented to the emergency department with a 9-day history of headaches and a 3-day history of fevers, rigors, nasal congestion and nonproductive cough. She later tested positive ...
This specific case encourages clinicians to be aware of complications, though rare, and to diagnose and treat sinusitis cases quickly. It is also important to be aware of any risk factors for thrombus...
Isolated sphenoidal sinusitis (ISS) is a rare disease with non-specific symptoms and a potential for complications. Diagnosis is made clinically, endoscopically, and with imaging like CT scans or MRIs...
The study analyzed 193 charts and examination records from 2000 to 2022 in patients diagnosed with isolated sphenoidal sinusitis at the Ziv Medical Center in Safed, Israel. Of the 193, 57 patients wer...
The patients included 40 men and 96 women, ranging in age from 17 to 86 years (mean ± SD, 37 ± 15.2 years). A positive endoscopy and radiography were encountered in 29.4%, and headache was present in ...
ISS is an uncommon entity encountered in clinical practice with non-specific symptoms and a potential for complications. Therefore, the condition must be kept in mind by clinicians, and prompt diagnos...
Odontogenic sinusitis (ODS) is distinct from non-odontogenic rhinosinusitis with regard to clinical features as well as diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. While numerous studies have explored immu...
Odontogenic sinusitis was diagnosed by confirming infectious sinusitis adjacent to infectious maxillary odontogenic pathology. Maxillary sinus cultures and mucosal biopsies were obtained during endosc...
Specimens from 22 ODS patients were compared to nine controls. ODS mucosal tissue was sampled in the setting of the following dental pathologies: post-dental extraction (n = 15), untreated apical peri...
ODS demonstrated both innate immune and Th1 inflammatory endotypes. Further studies are needed to explore ODS immunopathobiology and its potential impact on ODS management....
The aim of this paper was to search for reported cases of sinus infection following reduction malarplasty and present guidelines for the prevention of sinusitis. Two cases of maxillary sinusitis that ...
Primary chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is typically a diffuse process and the extent of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) performed for medically recalcitrant CRS is impacted by many factors. However, some...
Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, from inception through May 2022....
A systematic review was performed. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines were followed....
We identified 6070 abstracts which were screened and from which 112 studies ultimately underwent a full-text review. From these studies, we found that none investigated (or provided evidence of) wheth...
We were unable to find evidence supporting a minimum millimeter measurement of mucosal thickening or sinus opacification as predictors of CRS or better post-ESS outcomes in a sinus-specific manner in ...
Odontogenic and sinogenic infections are frequently encountered in the pediatric population. Although the diagnosis is often suspected clinically, imaging can play a significant role in localizing the...
