The failed dental implant associated with maxillary sinusitis is a multifactorial phenomenon and should be investigated thoroughly. inflammatory process induced by accumulated biofilm wear debris may increase mucous secretion thickening, which finally lead to severe complications such as sinusitis. cytokines might compromise the long-term osseointegration of related implant. In this study, impl...

Rhinology-related diseases are very common worldwide. Although not fatal, they may cause significant morbidity and reduce quality of life. We ai0med to describe the characteristics patients in rhinology division at eye, nose throat (ENT) Polyclinic, Prof. Hospital. Dr. I.G.N.G Ngoerah Denpasar period 1 January 2020 31 December 2021. It was a retrospective descriptive study which conducted ENT f...

Background Sinusitis affects significant percentage of population causing considerable long term morbidity. P.aeruginosa is responsible for about 13% of the sinusitis cases. Pseudomonas produces hemolysin, rhamnolipid, a membrane glycolipid, secretory pigments like pyocyanin and 1hydrophenazine which can reduce ciliary beating and mucociliary clearance. Alginate functions as an adhesion, thereb...

Pachymeningitis manifested by localized enhancing dural thickening adjacent to the clivus on MR images of two patients with sphenoid sinusitis and sixth-nerve palsy is presented. This is an unusual complication of sphenoid sinusitis. Prompt diagnosis and therapy may avoid significant intracranial complications.

Sinusitis of dental origin is a relatively frequent entity, and odontomas are considered to be the most common odontogenic tumors of the oral cavity. Eruption and infection of odontomas are extremely rare. Here, we report an interesting case where odontoma was found in the wake of the maxillary sinusitis onset.

Dental sources of infection can produce acute and chronic maxillary sinusitis. In some cases, the source of the infection may be related to the presence of endodontic materials in the oral cavity. In this article, we report a case of retained gutta-percha in the maxillary sinus resulting in chronic sinusitis.

We used in situ hybridization for the detection of rhinovirus in maxillary sinus biopsy specimens obtained from 14 adult patients with acute sinusitis. In 7 specimens, rhinovirus RNA could be demonstrated in the maxillary sinus epithelium, thereby confirming the etiology of rhinovirus and the clinical suspicion of acute sinusitis.

BACKGROUND The efficacy of decongestants, antihistamines and nasal irrigation in children with clinically diagnosed acute sinusitis has not been systematically evaluated. OBJECTIVES To systematically review the efficacy of decongestants, antihistamines and nasal irrigation in children with clinically diagnosed acute sinusitis. We considered the following four interventions: 1) decongestants v...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether variations in gene expression exist at multiple subsites along the sinonasal tract in patients with chronic sinusitis with polyps and in healthy controls. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, controlled study. SETTING Academic medical center. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Tissue expression levels of 5 genes, previously found to be characteristic of ethmoid polyps, were measured...
