Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the completeness of harms reporting in systematic reviews (SRs) pertaining to functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). METHODS Using a cross-sectional study design, we performed a comprehensive search using MEDLINE (PubMed and Ovid), EMBASE, Epistemonikos, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews databases for SRs regarding FESS on May 15th, 2022. Returns were screened and data were extracted in a masked, duplicate manner. Following established methodology, we extracted general study characteristics, harms items, and overall methodological quality for each SR in our sample. Corrected covered area (CCA) was calculated for SR dyads. For data analysis, using Stata 16.1 we performed a bivariate analysis between variables. RESULTS Fifty-five SR's were included in our sample after excluding 375 studies that did not meet our inclusion criteria. Of the included SRs, 19 (19/55, 34.5%) did not report harms and 39 (39/55, 70.9%) reported half of the harms items or fewer. Our study found that 23 (23/55, 41.8%) of SRs demonstrated a method of harms data collection, 26 (26/55, 47.3%) of SRs had patients available for harms analysis in their results, and 25 (25/55, 45.5%) of SRs had a balanced discussion of harms and benefits of FESS. Fifty-two SRs were appraised as "critically low" quality using AMSTAR-2. A significant association was found between completeness of harms reporting (Mahady) and whether harms were listed as a primary outcome. No other associations were statistically significant. Two SR dyads had CCAs between 20% and 50% overlap and were compared for unique and shared harms. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates gaps in harms reporting regarding FESS in SRs. We recommend future studies implement guidelines such as the STROCCS guidelines or the harms extension of the PRISMA guidelines to improve harms reporting. Accurate harms reporting may advance patient safety and promote a more objective risk-benefit analysis for physicians and patients.

Evaluation of different surgical approaches to remove dental implants from the maxillary sinus. Sci Rep 2021; 11:4440.

Abstract
Dental implant surgery on atrophied maxilla has many risks; in some patients, simultaneous sinus lifting with implant placement must be performed to increase the chances of successful implantation; this procedure can cause implant migration. Eleven patients were diagnosed with implant migration into the maxillary sinus in four anatomical areas: the sinus floor above the alveolar bone, near the junction of the sinus and nasal floor, near the floor of the orbit, and the most posterior aspect of the sinus. Surgical removal was performed through four different direct non-endoscopic transoral approaches depending on the location of the displaced implant. Surgical challenges, surgery duration and postoperative complications were reported. The least challenging surgical intervention was noted when removing the displaced implants from the floor of the sinus through the crestal approach. More challenges were experienced during the surgical removal of anteriorly displaced implants near the roof of the orbital floor due to surgical access and the proximity of vital anatomical structures. Bleeding from the pterygoid venous plexus was profound with the posterior lateral approach. The choice of an appropriate surgical approach to retrieve displaced dental implants from the maxillary sinus depends on the location of the implant and the surrounding vital anatomical structures.

Abstract
Ectopic maxillary third molars (EMTM) are extracted mainly by the Caldwell-Luc technique but also by nasal endoscopy. There is currently no consensus on the treatment of this eruption and its management is heterogeneous and multidisciplinary. Two literature searches were performed with no time restrictions via Pubmed. In the first, we used the keywords "ectopic AND third molar" and in the second the keywords "dentigerous cyst AND ectopic third molar". For both articles, epidemiological, symptomatic, radiological and surgical data were recorded. Overall, 33 eligible articles were identified involving 39 cases of EMTM. 79% of patients were symptomatic. 87% of the teeth were associated with a dental cyst. In only 13% of cases was the location of the tooth in the sinus specified in the three planes of the space. Surgery was performed in 77% of patients by the Caldwell-Luc technique, by nasal endoscopy in 10% and by the Le Fort I approach in 3%. The indications for avulsion of EMTM are symptomatic patients or asymptomatic patients with an associated cyst. The intra-sinusal location of the tooth is not a factor in the choice of technique used, which depends rather on the individual skills of the surgeon. Although for a trained operator the Le Fort I osteotomy is an easy procedure, its interest in the treatment of EMTM is limited owing to the rare but potentially severe complications involved.

Abstract
Background Maxillary sinusitis of odontogenic origin, also known as maxillary sinusitis of dental origin or odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS), is a common disease in dental, otorhinolaryngologic, allergic, general, and maxillofacial contexts. Despite being a well-known disease entity, many cases are referred to otorhinolaryngologists by both doctors and dentists. Thus, early detection and initial diagnosis often fail to detect its odontogenic origin. Main body We searched recent databases including MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, and the Cochrane Library using keyword combinations of "odontogenic," "odontogenic infection," "dental origin," "tooth origin," "sinusitis," "maxillary sinus," "maxillary sinusitis," "odontogenic maxillary sinusitis," "Caldwell Luc Procedure (CLP)," "rhinosinusitis," "functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS)," "modified endoscopy-assisted maxillary sinus surgery (MESS)," and "paranasal sinus." Aside from the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) trial, there have been very few randomized controlled trials examining OMS. We summarized the resulting data based on our diverse clinical experiences. Conclusion To promote the most efficient and accurate management of OMS, this article summarizes the clinical features of rhinosinusitis compared with OMS and the pathogenesis, microbiology, diagnosis, and results of prompt consolidated management of OMS that prevent anticipated complications. The true origin of odontogenic infections is also reviewed.

Abstract
Background Endoscopic sinus surgeons are commonly faced with the management of patients with persistent maxillary sinusitis despite previous Caldwell–Luc surgery. Given the potential for altered mucociliary clearance in the post-Caldwell–Luc maxillary sinus, the optimal approach for surgical revision has not been well characterized. The objective of this study was to review our experience in endoscopic versus repeat Caldwell–Luc approaches in patients who have failed Caldwell–Luc surgery for chronic maxillary sinusitis. Methods Retrospective chart review was performed on patients who had a history of a Caldwell–Luc procedure and who then underwent a surgical revision for persistent maxillary sinusitis at the Oregon Health and Science University and Medical College of Wisconsin between 1983 and 2002. Results Sixty-eight patients were identified, with a total of 156 revision procedures performed on 103 maxillary sinuses. Fifty-three percent of the sinuses underwent endoscopic maxillary antrostomy as the first surgical revision, while 47% underwent a revision Caldwell–Luc procedure. Sixty-seven percent of the sinuses in the revision endoscopic group had clinical resolution with a single surgical revision, and 60% of the sinuses in the revision Caldwell–Luc group had clinical improvement with one surgical revision (p = 0.46). The endoscopic group averaged 1.3 ± 0.5 revision procedures per sinus to achieve clinical resolution, and the revision Caldwell–Luc group averaged 1.7 ± 1.0 revision procedures per sinus (p = 0.3). Mean follow-up was 25 months. Conclusion Endoscopic revision of the maxillary sinus yields comparable outcomes to repeat Caldwell–Luc procedure in patients with a history of previous failed Caldwell–Luc surgery. Endoscopic revision surgery is a viable alternative for surgical rehabilitation of the post-Caldwell–Luc maxillary sinus.

Abstract
Caldwell Luc surgery (CWS) is almost 120 years old now and it still enjoys an important place in ENT Surgeons armamentarium. The logic behind this surgery is to replace the diseased and scarred mucosa from maxillary sinus with new mucosa. In the initial period of this long journey the surgery gained many other important indications which also includes approach to surrounding structures which makes us to think if it's really a radical surgery as it is used just an approach to other structure. This was a retrospective study of CWS done during period of 2002-2014 in Sri Venkateshwara ENT Institute and Bowring & Lady Harding Hospital both of these attached to Bangalore Medical College & Research Institute. In this study we have tried to analyze the indications and surgical procedure adapted and complications. Even though it has synonym of radical antrostomy the complications were minor and temporary, except for permanent tooth anesthesia and nasal vestibular stenosis. With reasonable expertise if this surgery is done for proper indication: its worth to face these complications and it's a versatile surgery even today.

Abstract
Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is an inflammatory disease caused by the spread of dental inflammation into the sinus. The long-term administration of antibiotic medicine and/or treatment of the causative tooth are the usual initial treatments. These initial treatments are not always effective, and the reason is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to identify factors of significance that may contribute to the results of the initial treatment of OMS. Thirty-nine patients were studied, divided into two groups according to the results of initial treatment: effective or non-effective. The effective group comprised 20 patients who were cured by initial treatment. The non-effective group comprised 19 patients who required an additional operation. The duration of symptoms, spread into the other sinuses, aperture width of the osteomeatal complex (OMC) on the side of the maxillary sinus, and anatomical variations in the sinuses were compared between the groups. The only significant difference found was in the aperture width of the OMC, which was significantly narrower in the non-effective group than in the effective group. The aperture width of the OMC may be a significant predictor of the effectiveness of initial treatment of OMS.

Abstract
PURPOSE Endoscopic sinus surgery has become an increasingly popular treatment for most surgical cases of chronic sinusitis. However, in some cases, a modification of the classic Caldwell-Luc operation is unavoidable. The purpose of this paper is to present the outcome of 20 cases with pathology of the maxillary sinus which was approached endoscopically on diagnostic or interventional purpose. The primary indication for endoscopy for 11 cases was acute or chronic odontogenic sinusitis. For six cases, endoscopy was performed for removing a foreign body from the sinus cavity and for the remaining three cases, for diagnostic purpose only. METHODS A 4-mm rigid endoscope was used through the middle nasal meatus (eight cases) or via a puncture at the canine fossa (seven cases). A combined endoscopic approach was used in five cases. In three cases, endoscopy was combined with Caldwell-Luc technique. For the majority of the patients, the operation was performed under local anesthesia (16 cases). RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 9.1 months. No major complications were observed. One patient died 18 months after an endoscopically assisted detection of malignancy. Results were depended on the surgical procedure pursued and the underlying sinus pathology. Laborious surgery and chronic sinusitis gave the less satisfactory results. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopy of the maxillary sinus can be applied in a variety of indications. Alone or in combination with conventional surgery, it is a minimally invasive and highly diagnostic tool.

Abstract
AIM To present the current treatment approach for oroantral fistula causing maxillary sinusitis. DESIGN Case series. Four cases of oroantral fistula (diameters: 6, 9, 11 and 13 mm) due to chronic maxillary sinusitis were treated by excision of all diseased oroantral fistula tissue, followed by endoscopic creation of a large middle antrostomy and closure of the fistula using buccal flaps. A synthetic surgical glue and local alveolar bone were used. RESULTS Patients were followed up for six months to three years; all were considered cured. CONCLUSION Most surgeons use buccal or palatal flaps, combined with the Caldwell-Luc procedure, to treat chronic odontogenic sinusitis and to repair fistulae more than 5 mm in diameter. This study supports the hypothesis that an endoscopic technique could be successfully used in patients with oroantral fistula causing chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin, instead of the Caldwell-Luc procedure, at least in patients with a small to medium-sized oroantral fistula.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to report results of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for treatment of chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin in a series of patients with oroantral fistulae (OAF). STUDY DESIGN Fourteen patients were treated by FESS and OAF closure by local flap. Data on severity of symptoms, diagnostic endoscopy, and coronal CT scan findings, as well as intraoperative course and complications, were recorded. The follow-up period lasted up to 2 years, comprising clinical examinations and control CT scans. RESULTS All OAF healed uneventfully. All patients reported improvement in severity of sinusitis symptoms, which was confirmed through results of clinical examinations and control CT scans. No significant complications were recorded. No revision surgery was needed in any case. CONCLUSION These results indicate that FESS, combined with OAF closure by buccal flap, might be an effective and safe option for treatment of selected cases of chronic odontogenic sinusitis with OAF.

Abstract
This study retrospectively analyses paranasal sinus complications following displacement of oral implants in the maxillary sinus treated according to clinical situation by functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), an intraoral approach, or a combination of both procedures. Over 5 years, 27 patients (13 male; 14 female), aged 27-73 years (mean 53.9 years), underwent treatment for postoperative complications involving the paranasal sinuses following displacement of oral implants in the maxillary sinuses. According to the complication (implant displacement, implant displacement with or without reactive sinusitis and/or with or without associated oro-antral communication), patients were treated with FESS, intraoral approach to the sinus, or FESS associated with an intraoral approach. Follow up lasted for at least 1 year with clinical and radiographic controls. 26 patients recovered completely; one patient underwent re-intervention with FESS and an intraoral approach 2 years after implant removal, due to persistent signs and symptoms of maxillary sinusitis and oro-antral communication. Postoperative recovery after the second procedure was followed by complete recovery. The results demonstrate that a rational choice of surgical protocol for the treatment of complications involving the paranasal sinuses following displacement of implants in the maxillary sinuses may lead to reliable results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with chronically diseased maxillary sinuses, poor mucociliary clearance may result from long-standing inflammation or scarring from previous surgery. This subset of patients often has persistent sinus disease despite medical therapy and adequate antrostomy. Endoscopic maxillary mega-antrostomy (EMMA) is a mucosal sparing technique that facilitates mucus clearance and sinus irrigation in terminally dysfunctional maxillary sinuses. EMMA involves extending the antrostomy through the posterior half of the inferior turbinate down to the floor of the nose, creating a significantly enlarged antrostomy. This study describes our results of EMMA in recalcitrant maxillary sinusitis. METHODS A retrospective review was performed of patients who underwent EMMA for recalcitrant maxillary sinusitis between July 2005 and September 2007. We studied diagnoses, comorbid factors, clinical efficacy, revision rate, and complications. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients (average age, 48 years) underwent 42 EMMAs for recalcitrant maxillary sinusitis. Average follow-up was 11 months. All patients had previous maxillary sinus surgery (mean = 2.3). Relevant comorbid factors included prior Caldwell-Luc or maxillofacial surgery (16/42), cystic fibrosis (11/42), asthma (11/42), and IgG deficiency (3/42). The most common symptoms reported were facial pain/pressure and purulent rhinorrhea. At the time of the most recent postoperative examination, 74% of patients reported complete resolution of symptoms while 26% reported partial symptomatic improvement. There were no complications and the revision rate was 0%. CONCLUSION Maxillary sinuses that appear to be terminally diseased may be rehabilitated surgically without the need for surgical stripping. EMMA is an effective and safe treatment option for the management of recalcitrant maxillary sinus disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Retention cysts of maxillary sinus are therapeutic problem for laryngologists and maxillo-facial surgeons. They develop slowly and often without symptoms. The aim of the work was to compare the different methods of surgical treatment of maxillary sinus cysts performed in Department of Otolaryngology, Medical University of Lodz between 2003 and 2007. MATERIAL AND METHODS 113 patients with cyst of maxillary sinus were treated surgically between 2003 and 2007--74 men and 39 women. Between 2003 and 2005 Caldwell-Luc procedure was performed on 75 patients. In 2006 and 2007 38 patients underwent endoscopic removal of maxillary sinus cyst. RESULTS The average time of the endoscopic removal of maxillary sinus cyst was 10 minutes sorter than in Caldwell-Luc procedure (34 min versus 44 min, p < 0.05). 84.2% cases of the endoscopically treated patients had no pain after surgery. There was no discomfort in the operation area. In the Caldwell-Luc group only 5.3% patients had no pain and in 78.7% cases discomfort on the face was present (p < 0.05). Endoscopically treated patients were discharged from hospital after 3,6 days and in the Caldwell-Luc procedure patients stayed in hospital for 5.8 days. CONCLUSION Endoscopic sinus surgery is an effective treatment for retention cysts and should be widely used. Computer tomography should be performed before each procedure.

Abstract
Surgical procedure is used in chronic rhinosinusitis and aims at restoring proper drainage and ventilation. For this reason the surgery of this region is referred to as functional and in English literature is termed as FESS. It supplanted classical method of Caldwell-Luc or Denker. In the study nine years experience in the Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Surgery University of Poznań in the treatment of chronic sinusitis has been presented. 1463 patients treated with FEES were analyzed. Moreover, the method of selecting patients for the surgery, the diagram showing surgeries performed step by step as well as a list of various surgeries and intraoperative complications were presented. This work is the first part of the study. In the other part the results of the treatment based on the questionnaires sent to patients will be presented.

Abstract
This study evaluates the importance of specific posttraumatic reconstruction of the fractured anterior sinus wall. Several methods of different complexity of reconstruction are being compared by means of radiologic, rhinoscopic, and clinical data. Four groups of a total of 207 patients (age, 18-73 years; follow-up average, 4.2 years) with midfacial fractures, divided by operation technique and year, were evaluated. Control groups 1 to 3 received standard procedures without special regard on the reconstruction of the anterior sinus wall; the study group received specific reconstruction. The study group 4 showed a lower complication rate in nearly all measured parameters in comparison to groups 1 and 2. Study group 4 had the smallest incidences of posttraumatic sequelae in radiologic examinations; the clinical outcome was even to group 3. During open reduction and fixation procedures of midfacial fractures, attention should be given to the reconstruction of the anterior sinus wall to avoid postoperative discomfort.

Abstract
The present study reviews the literature concerning the surgical treatment of Aspergillus mycetoma (AM) in the last 20 years to identify a gold standard surgical technique. Aspergillus mycetoma of the maxillary sinus, or mycetoma (fungus ball), is a noninvasive or extramucosal mycotic infection. Surgical removal of the sinus fungal masses to ensure drainage and aeration is performed using the traditional Caldwell-Luc (CL) procedure or endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). Results of this review suggest that the gold standard surgical technique for AM is ESS with middle meatal antrostomy. General or local antifungal drugs are not indicated. Combined approach with an intraoral surgical access from the anterolateral wall of the maxillary sinus has to be reserved for selected cases in which ESS doesn't permit complete extraction of all fungal concretions or foreign bodies. The CL procedure should be avoided, because it has detrimental consequences for sinus physiology.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin (CMSDO) is a common disease that requires treatment of the sinusitis as well as of the odontogenic source. We present our surgical experience performing contemporary treatment of the odontogenic source and endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) in patients with CMSDO. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventeen patients with CMSDO underwent contemporary treatment of the odontogenic source and ESS. Five patients presented chronic oroantral fistula (OAF); 5 patients presented odontogenic cysts occupying the maxillary sinus; 2 patients had inflammatory cysts of the molars; 2 patients had maxillary sinus infection secondary to peri-implantitis; 3 patients had foreign bodies pushed through the root canal into the sinus. The first surgical step was the treatment of the odontogenic source. The second step was ESS with opening and calibration of the maxillary natural ostium. RESULTS Foreign bodies were extracted from the sinuses through the endonasal approach. No major complications after ESS were observed. The average time for ESS was +/-25 minutes. Good distant results without symptoms and complete closure of the fistula were obtained in all patients. CONCLUSION When significant sinus disease is found, an endoscopic approach to drainage in all of the involved sinuses can promote predictably successful closure of OAF. The endoscopic approach to chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin is a reliable method associated with less morbidity and lower incidence of complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Caldwell and Luc described the Caldwell-Luc operation more than 100 years ago as the surgical treatment for maxillary sinus disease. During the last decades less radical interventions using endoscopic approach have mainly replaced the classical procedures done for chronic and recurrent maxillary sinusitis. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING Between 1991 and 2002, 62 patients had the Caldwell-Luc approach for different indications. RESULTS Twenty (32%) patients had chronic sinusitis, 16 (26%) patients had inverted papilloma, 9 (15%) patients had suffered from nasal polyposis, 4 patients (6%) had dentigerous cyst, 4 (6%) patients had fungal ball, and 9 (15%) patients were operated for other indications. CONCLUSIONS The use of this surgical approach is rational in cases of fungal disease and in endoscopic medial maxillectomy for treating inverted papilloma. In all other cases, the preferred approach should now be endoscopic.

Abstract
Our aim was to know the clinical performance and management results of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) in Spanish hospitals. We sent a survey on the use and results of FESS to 160 Spanish public hospitals in June of 2002, obtaining a response rate of 69%. 82.9% of the interviewed hospitals carried out FESS and 17.1% of the remaining used the classic techniques of approaching the paranasal sinuses. The reported length of stay in hospital was 1.4 days for the FESS and 2.4 for the traditional surgery. The surgical time was 15 minutes shorter for the CENS, and the rate of recurrence was 16% less than for the classic surgery. As years of experience in the practice of the CENS go by, the surgical times tend to decrease, that didn't happen with the rate of recurrence. In conclusion, we consider that FESS seems to improve the analyzed clinical performance and assistential results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe variations in the management of nasosinus disorders among the Autonomous Communities and hospitals of Spain. METHODS We analyzed the Minimum Basic Data Set of the public health system from 1998-2000 for the diagnoses of nasosinus polyps and chronic sinusitis. We studied the distribution by regions of the rate of hospitalizations and of 4 indicators of quality of care and efficiency: mean length of stay, percentage of discharges without surgery, percentage of functional endoscopic sinus surgery and surgical complications. A cluster analysis was performed to classify hospitals according to the values of these indicators. RESULTS We analyzed 13061 discharges from 263 hospitals. Marked differences were found in age-adjusted hospitalization rates by regions. Cluster analysis classified the centers with more than 10 annual discharges in 3 categories: a) 32 hospitals in which the 4 quality indicators were above average; b) 35 hospitals in which 3 of the indicators were below average, and c) 74 hospitals in which 2 indicators were above average and 2 indicators were below average. CONCLUSIONS Marked interregional variations were found in hospitalization rates, as well as in the characteristics of management of nasosinus disorders in Spanish hospitals. The centers examined could be grouped into three clearly defined patterns according to indicators of quality of care and efficiency.
