Abstract
Introduction: Sinus pathology can compromise the success of implant treatment. There is a high incidence of sinus pathology. The treatment of this pathology may involve other professionals, which means higher healthcare costs and delays in carrying out implant treatments. Besides updating available scientific evidence, the objective of this article is to present a representative clinical case of pseudocystic pathology of the maxillary sinus and an alternative to its simultaneous surgical management in the bone regeneration required for subsequent rehabilitation using implants. Clinical case: A 46-year-old patient with a pseudocystic sinus lesion, referred for rehabilitation using implants in 1.4 and 1.7, due to mobility and pain in relation to a tooth-supported fixed prosthesis in the right maxilla. The surgical treatment, consisting of extractions, maxillary sinus elevation and removal of the pseudocystic lesion, was performed simultaneously. Discussion: There is controversy about the ideal time to perform sinus treatment. Some studies show success of endoscopic surgery simultaneously with removal of the odontogenic source. Others have shown that performing sinus surgery first has the same cure rate as performing dental treatment first. Conclusion: Pathology diagnosis and surgical planning must take into account the type and extent of the pathology and the treatment needs of the patient. Surgical management of sinus pathology simultaneously with bone regeneration is a safe and beneficial alternative for the patient.
