“…Furthermore, studies performed in pediatric populations have found no correlation between anatomic anomalies and the prevalence of CRS in the CT images of sinuses (28). A recently published study concluded that paranasal sinus variations (except ethmoidal bulla), and the type and length of ethmoid infundibulum did not pose a risk for maxillary sinusitis, and mucociliary activity should be prioritized (29).…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı, nazal polipli veya polipsiz kronik rinosinüzit (KRS) nedeni ile paranazal sinüs bilgisayarlı tomografisi (BT) yapılan hastalarda sinonazal hastalıkların prevalansını ve dağılımını araştırmak; KRS ile sinonazal varyasyonlar arasındaki ilişkiyi ve çevresel faktörlerin etkisini araştırmaktır.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Ankara'da üçüncü basamak sağlık merkezine başvuran 1000 hastanın paranazal sinüs BT görüntüleri ve dosyaları retrospektif olarak incelendi. BT bulguları, sigara içme durumu, allerji varlığı, ikamet yeri (kentsel/kırsal) ve fonksiyonel endoskopik sinüs cerrahisi öyküsü kaydedildi.BULGULAR: En sık maksiller sinüslerde (%53) olmak üzere, hastaların %68'inde KRS tespit edildi. KRS'li nazal polipler olguların %11'inde kaydedildi. KRS ayrıca sigara içenler arasında daha yaygındı (p<0.001). Nazal poliplerin eşlik ettiği KRS açısından kentsel ve kırsal yerleşimli olanlar arasında fark bulunmadı. Bununla birlikte, nazal polipli KRS olgularının çoğu kentlerde yaşamaktadır (%81.4, p=0.006). Allerji ile nazal polipozis veya polipli KRS arasında; sinonazal varyasyonlar ile KRS gelişimi arasında fark saptanmadı. SONUÇ:İncelenen bölgede, nazal polipli KRS prevalansı kentsel yerleşimde (hava kirliliği olan) daha yüksek iken, nazal polipsiz KRS bölgesel farklılık göstermemektedir. Sigara içenlerde KRS daha yaygındı ancak, nazal polipozisin eşlik ettiği KRS daha yaygın değildir. KRS, allerjik kişilerde daha yaygın değildir.

Objectives: Mucous retention cyst (MRC) is a benign and self-limited lesion that can be caused by many risk factors, including anatomical variations of the sinonasal region. This study aims to investigate the relationship between anatomical variations and the presence of MRC. Materials and Methods: In total, 2109 sinonasal cone beam computed tomography images were evaluated for the presence of MRC, and the sinonasal anatomical regions such as the osteomeatal complex (OMC), infundibulum length, ostium height, the diameter of the ostium, the presence of accessory ostium, concha bullosa, and mucosal thickening of the maxillary sinuses. Shapiro-Wilk normality test, independent sample t-test, and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis, and P < .05 was considered significant. Results: The prevalence of MRC was 119 (5.6%) cases. The average diameter of the ostium in cases with and without MRC was 0.49 ± 0.41 mm and 0.99 ± 0.76 mm, respectively, which showed a significant inverse relationship( P < .001). A significant relationship was found between the septum deviation, the ostium height, the concha bullosa, and the accessory ostium with the presence of MRC ( P < .001). Conclusions: Sinonasal anatomical variations such as ostium diameter, ostium height, septal deviation, the presence of accessory ostium, and concha bullosa can cause MRC development, and considering that surgery may be necessary in some cases; this could be of great importance to clinicians and surgeons for treatment and prevention of development or recurrence of these pseudocysts in patients.
