“…The analysis of the average dimensions of the MS on both the left and right sides was significant in identifying the SD of the patients. In this study, the average width of the left MS which was bigger than that of the right MS aligns with the findings of Bezada-Carrasco et al, (2021 ) and Paknahad et al, (2016 ). Meanwhile, the average length of the right MS which was bigger than that of the left MS aligns with the findings of Sathwane et al (2020 ), Paknahad et al, and Tambawala et al (2016 ).…”

“…Using the explorer module of the software, multiplanar reconstruction in axial, coronal, and sagittal (ACS) planes were undertaken. The measurement in the axial plane was carried out taking as reference the zygomatic process of the maxilla and the mandibular condyle as a reference to determine the maximum width and length of the MS according to Bezada-Carrasco et al, (2021) . The height, width, and length of the MS were measured by superimposing the ACS planes and using the MS walls (upper, anterior, medial, posterior, and lower walls) as references.…”

“…Several studies ( Tambawala et al, 2016 , Bezada-Carrasco et al, 2021 , Sathwane et al, 2020 ) have reported significant SD in the MS, with the height parameter showing the greatest dimorphism in terms of discriminant analysis. As a result, the height of the MS is the most significant factor in differentiating males and females.…”

Anatomical studies found in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) an optimal resource for the three-dimensional (3D) assessment of the head and neck. When it comes to the maxillary sinuses, CBCT enables a life-size reliable volumetric analysis. This study aimed to assess the age and sex-related changes of the maxillary sinuses using volumetric CBCT analysis. The sample consisted of CBCT scans of 112 male (n = 57) and female (n = 55) individuals (224 maxillary sinuses) distributed in 5 age categories: 20 |— 30, 31 |— 40, 41 |— 50, 51 |— 60 and > 60 years. Image acquisition was accomplished with the i-CAT Next Generation device set with voxel size of 0.25 mm and field of view that included the maxillary sinuses (retrospective sample collection from an existing database). Image segmentation was performed in itk-SNAP (www.itksnap.org) software. The volume (mm3) of the segmented sinuses was quantified and compared pairwise based on side (left and right), sex (male and female) and age (five groups). Differences between left and right sides volume were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The mean volume of maxillary sinuses in males was 22% higher than females (p = 0.0001). Volumetric differences were not statistically significant between age categories for males and females (p > 0.05). The discriminant power of sinuses’ volume may support customized and patient-specific treatment planning based on sex.

Introducción: El dimorfismo sexual se basa en las diferencias y características propias de ambos sexos en una misma especie.Objetivo: La investigación tuvo como propósito determinar el dimorfismo sexual de los senos maxilares de pacientes entre 18 y 60 años de edad de una población alto- andina del Perú que fueron analizados con Tomografías Cone Beam.Método: La siguiente investigación tuvo un alcance descriptivo, observacional, transversal y retrospectivo; la muestra estuvo conformada por 190 tomografías Cone Beam de pacientes entre 18 y 60 años de edad de ambos sexos, donde se analizaron 380 senos maxilares de, en los que se determinaron el dimorfismo sexual de los senos maxilares en altura, ancho, longitud y volumen.Resultados: El dimorfismo sexual es mayor en el género masculino con respecto al femenino, el volumen fue el mejor parámetro discriminante del seno maxilar derecho que podría utilizarse para estudiar el dimorfismo sexual con una precisión total del 82.6%, 88.1% respectivamente, seguida del ancho con una precisión de 74.2% en ambos lados, con menor porcentaje se encontró a la altura con una precisión del 69.5% y 72.1% respectivamente, la longitud con una precisión del 67.9%, 68.4% respectivamente.Conclusión: Se determinó que, el dimorfismo sexual muestra valores más altos en el sexo masculino a diferencia del sexo femenino.
