Abstrakt: Objective: The study aims to evaluate maxillary sinus volume in asthmatic patients.
Methods: Patients who applied to the faculty of dentistry between January 2014 and December 2023 were retrospectively screened. Cone beam computed tomography images of 312 maxillary sinuses (156 people) consisting of asthmatic patients and controls were included in the study. Radiographic images in the study were obtained with a Newtom 5 G (FP, Quantitative Radiology, Verona, Italy) cone beam computed tomography device. SimPlant Pro 16 program (Materialise NV, Leuven, Belgium) measured maxillary sinus volumes. SPSS 25.0 software (IBM SPSS, Inc.) was used to analyze statistical data.
Results: As a result of the tests, the right and left maxillary sinus volumes of asthmatic patients were significantly smaller than the control group. No significant relationship was found between age and maxillary sinus in both the study and control groups. Gender distribution was equal between the groups. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of age. No significant difference was found between the right and left maxillary sinus volumes.
Conclusion: Considering that there is no other study in the literature measuring maxillary sinus volume in asthmatic patients, this study may guide future research.
