Brief Summary

Dento- alveolar or dental structural diseases that affect the floor of the maxillary sinus can cause maxillary sinusitis which is known as odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS). Many treatment protocols have been documented to treat OMS. However, There is no unanimity among clinicians on how and who should treat OMS, whether is it otolaryngologist, oral/maxillofacial surgeons, or dentist. Therefore, this study will be will be enrolled to evaluate the efficacy of the Single-step Functional Sinus endoscopy and trans-oral surgery in the management of maxillary sinusitis raised from Odontogenic origin via Department- integrated therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Thickness of the sinus mucosa

    On coronal and sagittal CT scans, the thickness of the sinus mucosa will be measures by using measuring tool of the CT scan machine. For each of these picture sets, six mucosal thickness measurements will be taken. Then the average of these measurements will be calculated

    Two weeks after intervention

Study Arms (3)

Single-step Functional Sinus Endoscopy and Transoral Surgery

EXPERIMENTAL

The patients who will be included in this study will be treated by functional sinus endoscopy and transoral surgery to remove the dental cause in the same visit to treat odontogenic sinusitis. The functional sinus endoscopy will be performed by the otolaryngologist, while the transoral surgery will be performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

Procedure: Single-step Functional Sinus Endoscopy and Transoral Surgery

Functional sinus endoscopy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patients who will be included in this study will be treated by functional sinus endoscopy to treat odontogenic sinusitis, and it will be performed by the otolaryngologist.

Procedure: Functional sinus endoscopy

Trans oral Surgery

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patients who will be included in this study will be treated by transoral surgery to treat odontogenic sinusitis, and it will be performed by by oral and maxillofacial surgeon

Procedure: Trans oral Surgery

Interventions

In each patient, the operation will be carried out by an otorhinolaryngologist and a maxillofacial surgeon. The procedures of the functional sinus endoscopy (FSE) will performed as follow: Under general anesthesia, the origin of the turbinate, and the lateral nasal wall will be conducted. The following stage will be infundibulotomy, which ensures that the uncinate process will be completely removed. The ostium will be dilated with a Stammberger dilatator starting with a 0-degree endoscope then shift to a 30- or 45-degree endoscope to clean the sinus. The cavity will be irrigated after removal of the odontogenic diseases and the purulent discharge will suctioned.In addition to FSE, the maxillofacial surgeon will conduct the necessary oral surgery procedures.The needed transoral procedures will be tooth extraction, oro-antral fistula closure or cystectomy.

Also known as: FSE/OS
Single-step Functional Sinus Endoscopy and Transoral Surgery

All patients in this group will only be treated with FSE, which will be conducted by an otolaryngologist. The FSE procedures will be carried out in the same way as the group of Single-step Functional Sinus Endoscopy and Transoral Surgery.

Also known as: FSE
Functional sinus endoscopy

Every patient in this group will only be treated with transoral surgical procedures to remove dental pathology. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons will undertake these treatments. The procedure will be either tooth extraction, oro-antral fistula closure, or cystectomy. If extraction is not needed, endodontic treatment will be performed to remove necrotic pulp. The oro-antral fistula will be closed in two layers using a buccal advanced flap and a palatal rotational flap. In the case of odontogenic cysts, the lesion will be removed by raising a trapezoidal flap.

Also known as: OS
Trans oral Surgery

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • A diagnosis of OMS that is not responding to dental treatment and/or medical treatment
  • Agreement on the odontogenic cause between an ENT specialist and a dentist/maxillofacial surgeon (There is bone loss surrounding the tooth's root and a connection between the dental lesion and sinus on CT scans)
  • Availability of clinical, radiographic, and ESS data.

You may not qualify if:

  • Maxillary sinus malignancy
  • Sinuses with a previous surgery
  • Non-odontogenic Sinusitis
