Facial bone scintigraphy. VI. Practical clinical use in inflammatory disorders of the maxillary sinus.

Facial bone scintigraphy with 99Tcm-DP was compared with radiographic examination of the maxillary sinuses in a clinical routine series of patients considered to have inflammatory disorders of the maxillary sinus. Scintigraphy correlated better to the presence of purulent inflammatory lesion than did radiography. Bone tissue reaction is almost mandatory for the diagnosis of purulent maxillary inflammatory disorder.

Radiation dose to the lens in sequential and spiral CT of the facial bones and sinuses.

A tendency for over-utilization of the radiological examinations of facial bones and sinuses has been observed. The radiosensitive lens is exposed to radiation during such examination. Comparison of routine roentgenography and spiral axial and coronal CT in sequential and spiral acquisition modes with different mAs values was undertaken using Alderson Rando Phantom. The spiral-CT technique with pitch 1.5 performed in the coronal plane gave the lowest radiation dose to the lens as compared with other CT methods and only seven times higher than routine sinus roentgenography.

[Mucosa-saving conservative maxillary sinus surgery with periostium-based facial bone coverage].

Two hundred and seven patients treated with various techniques of maxillary sinus surgery were followed up. Although this was a retrospective study the results seem to demonstrate that the more conservative surgical approaches are more favorable in terms of impaired sensitivity and pain in the maxillary sinus than the formerly practiced radical CALDWELL-LUC procedure. In some cases postoperative pain was improved by neurolysis and reconstruction of the facial bone wall.
