SAEZ-ALCAIDE, Luis Miguel et al. Maxillary sinusitis with zygomatic implants: A systematic review. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.4, pp.199-206. ISSN 2173-9161. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.maxilo.2017.05.001.
Introduction:
The use of zygomatic implants is now a predictable and consolidated therapeutic alternative in the rehabilitation of patients with atrophic maxilla. However, like any surgical technique, it has a few complications that should not be ignored.
Objective:
The aim of this study is to analyse the frequency and causes of maxillary sinusitis caused by treatment with zygomatic implants.
Material and method:
A systematic review was performed using different databases, searching the prevalence and causes of maxillary sinusitis due to treatment with zygomatic implants.
Results:
Most studies cite sinusitis as one of the most common post-operative complications, finding 4.93 cases per 100 zygomatic implants placed.
Discussion:
The fact that sinusitis is related to the intra-sinusal technique has led to the development of techniques in order to avoid it, such as the extra-sinusal approach of implants or the use of combined surgical techniques such as simultaneous sinus lift with implant placement or coverage with buccal fat pad.
Conclusion:
Despite being the most common complication, the prevalence is quite low; a fact that confirms the success of treatment with zygomatic implants.
