“…9 In an effort to avoid this it is also possible for foreign bodies to be removed from the maxillary sinus in conjunction with Ear Nose and Throat (ENT) colleagues using fibre-optic devices through the middle meatus, although formal closure of the oral communication into the sinus will still be required. 10 …”

“…Caldwell-Luc procedure in removing a residual dental cement from the maxillary antrum, while Friedrich and Ritternberg [12] described a combined approach for the removal of a dental bur from the antrum. Chandrasena et al [13] on the other hand reported the sole use of the functional endoscopic technique for the retrieval a root inadvertently displaced into the antrum by a general practitioner; a procedure very similar to the approach described in this article. This was also the first report in literature where an endoscope was used solely to remove a root from the maxillary antrum.…”

“…The advantages of functional endoscopic sinus surgery noted in literature include its less invasiveness, decreased risk of tooth root injury and ability to fully visualize the antrum, others include a short recovery time and little or no risk of injury to the infraorbital nerve [11][12][13][14]. The potential problem of altered facial growth in children associated with the Caldwell-Luc operation is absent with this technique [15,16].…”

Introduction: A 50-year-old edentulous patient was presented at the outpatient department with a two-year history of nasal regurgitation of fluids following a traumatic extraction and dislocation of the root into the left maxillary sinus. Examination revealed an oroantral fistula. this article describes the use of the functional endoscopic approach for the foreign body (root) removal as against the traditional caldwell-Luc operation. this was followed-up with a twolayer soft tissue closure of the oroantral fistula resulting from the failed dental extraction.

Introduction Ectopic sinonasal teeth are uncommon. The classic approach to removal of such foreign bodies was the Caldwell-Luc. In recent years however, endoscopic approaches have become increasingly utilized. Despite this, there is a dearth of literature and consensus regarding the endoscopic removal of ectopic sinonasal teeth. As such, we conducted a systematic review on all cases of endoscopic removal of ectopic sinonasal teeth in the literature. With an understanding of the literature, clinical and technical decision making for patients with this pathology may be elucidated. Methods Systematic review of the Ovid Medline, EMBASE Classic and Pubmed databases were conducted using PRISMA guidelines. Results Our search identified 100 articles. Final inclusion consisted of 23 studies with a total of 27 patient cases. The majority of the patients included were male (70.4%) with a mean age of 27.06 years. Patients presented with a multitude of symptoms, with nasal obstruction (48.14%), rhinorrhea (22.2%), facial pain (22.2%) and epistaxis (22.2%) being most common. Surgeons mostly reported using a 0° endoscope (22.2%) and performing a maxillary antrostomy/uncinectomy (37%) and simple extraction under general anesthetic (41%). Conclusions This systematic review analyzed important epidemiological, clinical and technical information regarding patients with endoscopic removal of sinonasal ectopic teeth. Further research is needed to promote implementation of such data into clinical practice.
