ABSTRACT
The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that there would be a correlation between nasal septum deviation (NSD) and a decreased maxillary sinus volume (MSV) in a Colombian population, using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT); other sinusal anatomical structures found during the reading were described and analyzed. A retrospective analysis of 537 CBCT scans of adult patients taken between January 2014 and January 2017 included measuring the maxillary sinus diameter in the vertical, horizontal, and sagittal planes. NSD was quantified and related to MSV using the same field of view (FOV). The volume of the right and left maxillary sinuses showed a median and interquartile range (IQR) of 8.18 mm3 (IQR 6.2-10.33) and 8.3 mm3 (IQR 6.4-10.36). Statistically significant differences were observed between sex and right and left MSV (p = 0.000), with higher MSV in men. The presence of NSD was observed in 96.81% of the sample and was evaluated in degrees, observing a median of 11° (IQR 7-16) where 40% of the sample had moderate angles (9-15°). There was no correlation between NSD and a decreased MSV in the population studied. Detailed CBCT analysis with a large FOV is crucial for the analysis of anatomical structures before performing surgical procedures that involve the MS as a preventive diagnostic and therapeutic step for appropriate treatment.
