Résumé
The use of zygomatic implants in the prosthetic rehabilitation of the patient with severe maxillary bone atrophy is a therapeutic alternative to consider. In spite of being a technique which is considered predictable, consolidated and widely documented by numerous studies and professionals, it is not exempt from complications. The main objective of this review is to evaluate the prevalence and causes of maxillary sinusitis associated with the use of zygomatic implants. It has been reported that maxillary sinusitis is the most frequent surgical complication linked to this technique. However, it appears in a few number of patients, fact that supports the high success rates of the use of zygomatic implants. Sinusitis has been related to the original intrasinusal technique. To avoid this complication, some techniques such as the extramaxillary approach, the combination with sinus graft or the use of buccal fat pad have been developed.
