Volumetric analysis of the maxillary sinus in pediatric patients with nasal septal deviation
Öz
Objective: Reasons such as nasal deviation, which reduces airflow in
nose and impairs oxygenation, may affect the maxillary volume. In
this study, we aimed to perform a retrospective study between the
degree of nasal septal deviations and maxillary sinus volume.
Methods: The files of 103 male and 124 female patients (total n=227)
who applied to otorhinolaryngology clinic with nasal septal deviation
without coexisting sinonasal morbidity were investigated, and compared with those without nasal septal deviation and coexisting sinonasal
morbidity. Three-dimensional paranasal sinus CTs were performed for
the diagnosis (CTs were found to be normal, and etiology of chronic
intracranial headache could not be determined) and they were evaluated retrospectively. Maxillary sinus volume was calculated for each case
in the groups. The relationship between nasal septal deviation and maxillary sinus volume was evaluated.
Results: Our study determined that there was statically no significant
difference between the maxillary volumes of the group with
(29.34±7.46 cm3
) or without nasal septal deviation (27.89±8.51 cm3
)
(p>0.05). No matter what the right nasal septal deviation angle is, it
did not affect the right, left and total maxillary sinus volumes. Both
left- and right-sided nasal septal deviations did not have any effect on
the right, left and total maxillary volumes.
Conclusion: Any difference was not observed between the maxillary
sinus volumes of the children in the pediatric age group with and
without nasal septal deviations, and it was concluded that the existence or severity of the septal deviation did not have any effect on the
maxillary sinus volume.
