Abstract:

With the widespread introduction of computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses, doctors increasingly began to meet with chronic atelectasis of the maxillary sinus, specific changes in the bone walls of the maxillary sinus, can be misinterpreted, which will lead to an incorrect diagnosis and, accordingly, the wrong choice of treatment tactics. For a long time, chronic maxillary atelectasis can be asymptomatic and detected as an accidental finding during an examination for other diseases, but with untimely or incorrectly selected treatment, it can lead to facial asymmetry and the appearance of complaints from the eye. The main method of diagnosis of chronic atelectasis of the maxillary sinus is computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses. Treatment of this pathology can only be surgical, and the choice of optimal tactics is endonasal endoscopic maxillary sinusitis. The article describes the cases of diagnosis and treatment of patients with chronic maxillary sinus atelectasis at the age of 9 to 50 years.
