Results of Endoscopic Maxillary Mega-antrostomy in Recalcitrant Maxillary Sinusitis

Abstract: 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.

“…1161 On the other hand, clinical studies have shown that a mega-antrostomy for recalcitrant chronic maxillary sinusitis is effective in reducing sinonasal symptomatology, objective endoscopic and radiographic evidence of CRS, and corticosteroid and antibiotic use. 1162,1163 Enlargement of the maxillary ostium may also be associated with decreased NO levels in the maxillary sinus, 1164 but the clinical impact of this decrease remains unknown.…”

“…1160 The contrasts between conventional ESS and more conservative approaches, such as MIST, have been studied in patients with chronic maxillary sinusitis, and these findings have been interpreted to generally translate to the other paranasal sinuses as well. [1160][1161][1162][1163] MIST and traditional maxillary antrostomy each have their own set of potential advantages and disadvantages. Because MIST involves less manipulation of mucosa and bone, the likelihood for postoperative scar formation in the region of the maxillary ostium may be reduced.…”

“…In the era of angled instruments and endoscopes, the advantages of a direct intramaxillary approach via the inferior meatus cannot be overlooked. This is especially true when considering the alternative approaches mentioned, such as the canine fossa approach, mega-antrostomy, or medial maxillectomy [13, 14]. In view of the unfavorable angle for reaching the inaccessible areas of the sinus using the MMA approach, an endoscopic canine fossa approach to the maxillary sinus in severe disease and nasal polyposis has been recently described in detail [15, 16].…”

“…Преимущества эндоскопической мегаантросто-мии у 42 пациентов с хроническим, упорно протека-ющим верхнечелюстным риносинуситом, часть из которых страдала МВ, были оценены в ретроспек-тивном исследовании [28]. Среди сопутствующих факторов у 16 человек в анамнезе была операция по Колдуэллу-Люку, 11 исследуемых страдали МВ, 11 -бронхиальной астмой, у 3 больных был выяв-лен дефицит иммуноглобулинов класса G. У 74% пациентов было достигнуто полное исчезновение симптомов, у 26% больных отмечено симптоматиче-ское улучшение.…”
