Retrospective Evaluation of the Prevalence of Maxillary Sinus Septa in the Popu-lation of the Southeastern Anatolia Region By Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Öz

Abstract

Background: The aim of this study to evaluate the prevalence of sinus septa in the population of the Southeast-ern Anatolia region retrospectively with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, a total of 1896 sinus and CBCT images of 948 patients who applied to Dicle University Faculty of Dentistry, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department for various reasons between 2015-2020 were examined. Sinus septa CBCT images of 948 patients (510 women, 438 men) were evaluated. Cases in which sinus septa is detected; All data obtained in terms of gender, localization (anterior, middle and posterior), lateralization (unilateral, bilateral) were recorded and their incidence was determined by statistical analysis.
Results: CBCT images of 948 patients aged 18-65 years were evaluated. The maxillary right and left jaws of these patients were examined and a total of 322 sinus septa were detected in 303 patients. While a single sinus septa was seen in 284 patients, two sinus septa were observed in 19 patients. In 510 female patients (1020 septa were examined), 178 septa were detected (9%). In 438 male patients (876 septa were examined), 144 septa were detected (7%). A single septa was observed in 284 of 322 sinus septa (88%); Double sinus septa was observed in 19 of them (5%). Sinus septa; 81 (25%) in the anterior, 153 (47%) in the middle, and 88 (27%) in the posterior. Sinus septa was bilateral in 6 (510 patients) female patients (1%). It was seen unilaterally in 166 patients. Sinus septa was seen bilaterally in 3 (438 patients) of male patients (0.6%). It was seen unilater-ally in 138 patients.
Conclusions: In our study, the prevalence of sinus septa was seen in 16% of the Southeastern Anatolia Region population. Sinus septa was observed at a higher rate in female patients. Double sinus septa was seen as 5%. These percentage values are; It was considered statistically significant for p<0.05.

Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi Popülasyonunda Maksiller Sinüs Septa Prevalansının Konik Işınlı Bilgisayarlı Tomografi ile Retrospektif Olarak Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmanın amacı; sinüs septanın, Güneydoğu Anadolu bölgesi popülasyonundaki prevelansını konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi (KIBT) ile retrospektif olarak değerlendirmektir. YÖNTEM: Bu retrospektif çalışmada, 2015-2020 yılları arasında Dicle Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi, Ağız, Diş ve Çene Cerrahisi Anabilim dalına çeşitli nedenlerle başvuran 948 hastaya ait toplam 1896 sinüs, KIBT görüntüleri incelenmiştir. 948 hastaya ait (510 kadın, 438 erkek) sinüs septa KIBT görüntüleri değerlendirildi. Sinüs septa tespit edilen vakalar; cinsiyet, lokalizasyon (anterior, orta ve posterior), lateralizasyon (unilateral, bilateral) açısından elde edilen tüm veriler kaydedildi ve istatistiksel olarak analiz edilerek görülme sıklıkları belirlenmiştir. BULGULAR: 18-65 yaş aralığındaki 948 hastanın KIBT görüntüleri değerlendirilmiştir. Bu hastaların maksiller sağ ve sol çeneleri incelenmiş ve 303 hastada toplam 322 sinüs septa tespit edilmiştir. 284 hastada tek sinüs septa görülürken, 19 hastada ikişer sinüs septa görülmüştür. 510 kadın hastada (1020 septa incelendi) 178 septa tespit edildi (%9). 438 erkek hastada ise (876 septa incelendi) 144 septa tespit edildi (%7). 322 sinüs septanın, 284 tanesinde tek septa görülürken (%88); 19 tanesinde çift sinüs septa (%5) görülmüştür. Sinüs septa; anteriorda 81 adet (%25), ortada 153 adet (%47), posteriorda 88 adet (%27) olarak tespit edilmiştir. Sinüs septa kadın hastaların 6’sında (510 hastada) çift taraflı görüldü (%1). 166 hastada tek taraflı olarak görüldü. Sinüs septa erkek hastaların 3’ünde ( 438 hastada) çift taraflı görüldü (%0,6). 138 hastada tek taraflı olarak görüldü. SONUÇLAR: Çalışmamızda sinüs septa prevalansı toplamda Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi popülasyonunun % 16’sında görülmüştür. Sinüs septa, kadın hastalarda daha yüksek oranda izlenmiştir. Çift sinüs septa %5 olarak görülmüştür. Bu yüzdelik değerler; p<0,05 için istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir.
