RESUMO
Una complicación infrecuente de la sinusitis frontal es el tumor inflamatorio de Pott. Se manifiesta como una tumefacción en la frente por la presencia de un absceso subperióstico secundario a una osteomielitis del hueso frontal. El diagnóstico oportuno permite un tratamiento intensivo médico y quirúrgico precoz, esencial para evitar complicaciones intracraneales graves. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 12 años con un tumor inflamatorio de Pott como complicación de una pansinusitis. Representó un desafío diagnóstico; sin embargo, la instauración del tratamiento oportuno permitió una evolución clínica favorable.
A rare complication of frontal sinusitis includes Pott's puffy tumor. It manifests as a swelling of the forehead due to the presence of a subperiosteal abscess secondary to osteomyelitis of the frontal bone. A timely diagnosis allows for an early, intensive medical and surgical treatment, which is critical to prevent serious intracranial complications. Here we describe the case of a 12-year-old boy with Pott's puffy tumor as a complication of pansinusitis. This case was a diagnostic challenge; however, a timely treatment allowed for a favorable clinical course.

Differentiating orofacial odontogenic pain/disorders from pain/disorders associated with maxillary sinusitis is important to avoid unnecessary dentalprocedures and to properly refer patients to colleagues/dentists and vice versa. AIM: To analyze the association between apical lesions and sinus changes and to evaluate the agreement between the diagnoses of an endodontist, a radiologist, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, and an otolaryngologist. MATERIALS AND METHOD: 385 axial, coronal, and sagittal MSCT scans were selected using an image archiving andcommunication system (PACS). The examinations had been performed between 2018 and 2022. RESULTS: Apical lesions were observed in 36.10% of sinusitis cases, 73.8% of unilateralsinusitis cases, 48.7% of sinus floor discontinuity cases, and 67.2% of cases in which endodontic treatment had been performed. Agreement between the diagnoses made by the endodontist and those made by the other investigators was high for most study variables (k > 0.60). The exceptions were mucosal thickening, for which agreement between the endodontist and the other investigators was intermediate (k=0.397), and the presence of periapicallesions (k=0.010), previous endodontic treatment (k=0.013), and mucosal thickness (k=0.024), for which agreement between endodontists and radiologists was low. Conclusions: There was an association between sinus changes and apical lesions.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It requires immunosuppression, which predisposes to the development of complications; chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most significant. Objetive: To compare the characteristics of patients with CKD and without CRS in a renal transplant protocol at a specialized hospital in Puebla, Mexico. Methods: A comparative, cross-sectional, retrospective study in patients with CKD and in renal transplant protocol at a third-level care hospital. The SNOT-22 and Lund-Mackay scales were applied. Descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U tests, Fisher's exact test, and Phi coefficient were used; p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: 360 patients were recruited: 49 presented with CRS; prevalence: 13.61%; mean age: 39.22 ± 12.09 years and duration of progression: 17.73 ± 5.91 weeks. Naso-sinusal polyposis was present in 14.3%; nasal obstruction in 95.9%; facial pain in 67.3%; rhinorrhea in 49% and hyposmia/anosmia in 40.8%. Associated risk factors: allergy to acetylsalicylic acid (p=0.014) and atopy (p=0.000). Anatomical variants in patients with and without CRS, respectively: Agger nasi cell 95% and 15.4%; septal deviation, 50% and 6.4%; turbinate hypertrophy, 50% and 1.3%; concha bullosa, 30% and 4.2%; and paradoxical turbinate, 10% and 1.6%. The predominant quality of life impact in patients with and without CRS was moderate at 53.1% and mild at 97.1% (p=0.000). Conclusion: The prevalence of CRS was 13.61%; the associated risk factors were allergy to acetylsalicylic acid and atopy, and the predominant anatomical variant was Agger nasi. The tomographic severity was mild, and the impact on quality of life was moderate.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study is to investigate the lung function in Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients with Chronic Cough (CC). METHODS: A total of 1413 CC patients were retrospectively screened and 109 CRS patients with CC were enrolled. Lung function, Lund-Mackay Computed Tomography (CT) score, smoking status, peripheral blood eosinophil count, and immunoglobulin E concentration in serum samples, and Sino-Nasal Outcome Test were examined. Normal control subjects are also recruited. RESULTS: The Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1.0), Percent Predicted FEV1.0, and FEV1.0/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) ratio in the patients were significantly low as compared with the control subjects. The FEV1.0/FVC ratio was negatively correlated with the Lund-Mackay CT scores of the patients with a high CT score. CONCLUSIONS: The CRS patients with CC should be investigated with lung function. In addition, the multidisciplinary evaluation including a pulmonologist is needed to manage the CRS patients with CC. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 4.

PURPOSE: Cerebral sinovenous thrombosis is an increasingly recognized cause of stroke in children and neonates. Its true incidence appears to be underestimated. Despite being a rare event, certain studies have found a correlation between subdural hemorrhage and cerebral sinus thrombosis. The literature suggests that spontaneous cerebral sinovenous thrombosis in the pediatric population may lead to the occurrence of a subdural hemorrhage. In this report, we present a case of cerebral venous thrombosis associated with chronic subdural hematoma and review the literature to highlight the importance of these conditions. CASE REPORT: An 11-year-old boy was admitted in the neurosurgery department with headache and a neurological examination without changes. The imaging studies identified a heterogeneous subdural collection in the fronto-temporo-parietal region. The patient underwent surgical drainage of the subdural hematoma, and the procedure was performed without complications. The magnetic resonance and angiography showed an extensive thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus, extending downward to the occipital sinus and partially to the right transverse sinus. CONCLUSIONS: Appropriate management in the diagnosis and an early treatment of dural sinus thrombosis associated with subdural hemorrhage can reduce the risk of recurrence and improve the clinical outcome.

PURPOSE: To evaluate and compare the reported sinusitis occurrence after the sinus lift procedure and zygomatic implant placement. METHODS: This meta-analysis has been registered at PROSPERO. Studies were searched on six databases. Two authors screened titles and abstracts and fully analyzed the studies against the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The RoB 2.0 and the ROBINS-I tools were used to assess the quality and risk of bias of the included studies. The random-effects model was used for the meta-analysis. The prevalence of sinusitis was calculated based on the total of patients. Subgroup analysis was performed by sinus lift or zygomatic implant surgery technique. RESULTS: The search identified 2419 references. After applying the inclusion criteria, 18 sinus lift and 9 zygomatic implant placement studies were considered eligible. The pooled prevalence of sinusitis after sinus lift procedure was 1.11% (95% CI 0.30-2.28). The prevalence after zygomatic implant placement was 3.76% (95% CI 0.12-10.29). In the subgroup analysis, the lateral window approach showed a prevalence of sinusitis of 1.35% (95% CI 0.34-2.8), the transcrestal technique of 0.00% (95% CI 0.00-3.18), and the SALSA technique of 1.20% (95% CI 0.00-5.10). Regarding the techniques for zygomatic implant placement, the sinus slot technique showed a prevalence of 21.62% (95% CI 9.62-36.52) and the intrasinus technique of 4.36% (95% CI 0.33-11.08), and the prevalence after the extrasinus technique was 0.00% (95% CI 0.00-1.22). CONCLUSION: The sinusitis occurrence rate was higher after zygomatic implant placement than after sinus lift procedure and this occurrence was different depending on the used technique.
