Background: Mucosal cyst of the maxillary sinus or antral pseudocyst is one of great importance injury, being the pathology that affects more the maxillary sinus. Their discovery, in most cases, it is for the interpretation of the images in routine panoramic radiography. Aims: The research aimed to evaluate the prevalence of mucous cyst in maxillary sinus in radiology clinic at Ceara Federal University. Material and Methods: To this study conduction, were analyzed 1996 panoramic radiographs from a digital file obtained between April 2011 to April 2013 Results:. Aspects as gender, affected side and teeth absence next to the cyst in the respective quadrant were evaluated.It was observed in the sample the occurrence of 45 patients with suggested images of mucous cysts in maxillary sinus,making a prevalence of 2,25%. From them, 26 (57,8%)were female and 19 (42,2%) were male. 48 maxillary sinuswere affected with the wound, from which28 (58,3%) it was in the left side and 20 (41,7%) in the right site. Three patients presented the wound in both sides, what represents 6,7% of the affected patients. From those 48 Mucous retention cyst, 40 (83,3%) were not related to an edentulous area in ipsilateral quadrant and 8 (16,7%) were shown next to an edentulous area. Conclusion: The conclusion was that the cyst of retention mucous in the maxillary sinus had prevalence in males and in the left side of the maxillary sinus. It was not found a relation between the cyst and the edentulous area.

Abstract Objectives This study aimed to assess the prevalence of incidental findings, not strictly related to dentistry, viewed with panoramic radiography. Methods Panoramic radiographs performed between December 2013 and June 2016 were retrospectively collected. These images were analyzed, searching for incidental findings. All the information collected was statistically analysed Results A total of 2307 Panoramic Radiograph were analyzed and 2017 of them were included in the study. 529 incidental findings were seen: 255 (48.2%) were ESP (Elongation of Styloid Process), 167 were CAC (Carotid Artery Calcification) (31.57%), 36 were maxillary sinus pathologies (6.8%) and 71 were other incidental findings (13.42%). The total prevalence of IF was 26, 23%., CAC was 8.28% in the total population, and it was higher in women (9.82%) than men (6.54%). 48.5% of CAC were bilateral. When unilateral, the right side showed a higher right side prevalence. The prevalence of ESP was 12.64% in total population (men: 13.82%; women: 11.60%). 84.71% of ESP were bilateral and, when present unilaterally, no side difference was seen. 13.33% of the ESP appeared segmented. The prevalence of maxillary sinus pathologies was 1.78% (men: 2.32%; women: 1.31%). Only 8.33% of these pathologies were bilateral, and, when unilateral, they were mostly present on the right side. Between the 71 other IF (prevalence: 3.52%), sialoliths and tonsilloliths were assessed most frequently. Conclusion Due to the high prevalence of incidental findings detected with panoramic radiography, dental practitioners should be aware of the various pathologic conditions seen on the panoramic radiographs.

O objetivo deste estudo retrospectivo implica em comparar a presença de velamento, o espessamento de mucosa e a presença de septo no seio maxilar em radiografias panorâmicas e tomografias computadorizadas de feixe cônico (TCFC). A amostra foi composta por 100 pacientes do arquivo, que apresentavam as radiografias panorâmicas e as TCFC antes do início do tratamento ortodôntico, sendo 57 mulheres e 43 homens, com média de idade de 19,08 anos. Foram incluídas nesta pesquisa apenas os exames que apresentavam boa qualidade e bom posicionamento do paciente. A avaliação do velamento, espessamento de mucosa e presença de septo no seio maxilar foi realizada por um único examinador calibrado, de forma independente, nas radiografias e nas TCFC. A concordância entre os exames foi avaliada por meio do teste Kappa. Os resultados demonstraram boa concordância entre as radiografias panorâmicas e TCFC (Kappa entre 0,62 a 0,72), com -90, -88 e 89% de convergência entre os métodos, para velamento do seio maxilar; espessamento de mucosa e presença de septo no seio maxilar, respectivamente. Pode-se concluir que foi encontrada concordância satisfatória na avaliação do velamento, espessamento de mucosa e presença de septo no seio maxilar entre as radiografias panorâmica e TCFC. Dessa forma, as características do seio maxilar foram identificadas, de maneira semelhante, na radiografia panorâmica e na TCFC.Palavras-chave: Tomografia Computadorizada por Raios X.

Diagnóstico.AbstractThe objective of this retrospective study was to compare the presence of filled maxillary sinus, mucosal thickening and the presence of septum in the maxillary sinus on panoramic radiographs and concomitant computed tomography (CBCT) scans. The sample consisted of 100 patients from the archive who presented the panoramic radiographs and the CBCT before the beginning of the orthodontic treatment, being 57 women and 43 men, with a mean age of 19.08 years. Only the exams that presented good quality and good positioning of the patient were included in this study. The evaluation of the presence of filled maxillary sinus, mucosal thickening and the presence of septum in the maxillary sinus was performed by a single examiner, regardless of who was calibrated on panoramic radiograph and CBCT. The agreement among the exams was assessed by means of Kappa test. The results showed good agreement between panoramic radiograph and CBCT (Kappa between 0.62 and 0.72), with -90, -88 and 89% convergence between the methods, for the presence of filled maxillary sinus, mucosal thickening and presence of septum in the maxillary sinus, respectively. It can be concluded that satisfactory agreement was found in the evaluation of the the presence of filled maxillary sinus, mucosal thickening and presence of septum in the maxillary sinus between the panoramic and CBCT radiographs. Thus, the characteristics of the maxillary sinus were similarly identified in panoramic radiography and CBCT.Palavras-chave: Tomography, X-Ray Computed. Radiography, Panoramic. Diagnosis.

AbstractAlthough panoramic radiography has a role in the examination of patients with cleft alveolus (CA), its appearances is sometimes difficult to interpret. The aims of this study were to develop a computer-aided diagnosis system for diagnosing the CA status on panoramic radiographs using a deep learning object detection technique with and without normal data in the learning process, to verify its performance in comparison to human observers, and to clarify some characteristic appearances probably related to the performance. The panoramic radiographs of 383 CA patients with cleft palate (CA with CP) or without cleft palate (CA only) and 210 patients without CA (normal) were used to create two models on the DetectNet. The models 1 and 2 were developed based on the data without and with normal subjects, respectively, to detect the CAs and classify them into with or without CP. The model 2 reduced the false positive rate (1/30) compared to the model 1 (12/30). The overall accuracy of Model 2 was higher than Model 1 and human observers. The model created in this study appeared to have the potential to detect and classify CAs on panoramic radiographs, and might be useful to assist the human observers.

Abstract Background The proximity of the maxillary sinus floor to the maxillary molar roots increases the probability of oroantral communication on conducting any surgical or endodontic procedure in the involved area. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between each maxillary molar root and maxillary sinus floor using cone beam computed tomography. Predicting the probability of protrusion of each root into the sinus will consequently predict the probability of occurrence of the oroantral fistula in a sample of the Egyptian population. Results The total number of roots located outside the sinus was 121 (35.3%), while those contacting the sinus floor were 80 (23.3%) and those intruded the sinus were 141 (41.2%). The percentage of root intrusion into the sinus in males (56.9%) was significantly (p = 0.01) higher than females (42.9%). The probability of root intrusion in the left molars (54.2%) was non-significantly (p = 0.067) higher than that of the right side (44.3%). As for the type of tooth, the second molar showed the highest probability of root intrusion into the sinus (55.3%) followed by the third molars (52.6%) then the first molars (40.9). According to the type of root, the mesiobuccal root showed the highest probability of intrusion into the sinus (50.9%) followed by the palatal root (49.1%) then the distobuccal root (47.4%). However, the difference in both type of tooth and type of root was statistically non-significant (p = 0.051 and 0.869 respectively). As for the individual root with the highest probability of intrusion, the mesio-buccal root of the right third molar is the most frequent root to intrude the sinus (71.4%) and the mesio-buccal root of the right first molar is the least frequent (22.7%). Conclusions In a sample of the Egyptian population, males exhibit higher probability of root protrusion into the sinus than females. The side and type of tooth are of higher impact on the probability of its intrusion into the sinus compared to the type of root. Left second molars are at a higher risk of oroantral communications on surgical or endodontic procedures compared to other molars due to its highest probability of intrusion into the sinus.
