2024年8月14日 · The silent sinus syndrome represents maxillary sinus atelectasis, resulting in painless enophthalmos, hypoglobus and facial asymmetry 1,3. Some authors restrict the term to patients with no history of sinusitis, trauma or surgery 2. Some authors suggest it is part of the spectrum of chronic maxillary atelectasis 6.

Silent sinus syndrome (SSS) is a health condition affecting your maxillary sinuses, which are nasal passages in your cheek area next to your nose. The condition is characterized by a sunken eye (enophthalmos) and/or the downward displacement of your eyeball in …

Silent sinus syndrome is a spontaneous, asymptomatic collapse of an air sinus (usually the maxillary sinus and orbital floor) associated with negative sinus pressures. It can cause painless facial asymmetry, diplopia and enophthalmos.

2023年5月12日 · The gradual collapse of the maxillary sinus—located in the cheekbone area of the face—subsequently affects the orbital architecture and leads to enophthalmos and hypoglobus. Some possible underlying causes include chronic sinusitis , prior nasal or sinus surgery , nasal tumors, or trauma to the face.

Silent sinus syndrome is a disease characterized by enophthalmos and/or hypoglobus secondary to the collapse of the orbital floor in the presence of asymptomatic chronic maxillary sinusitis.

2024年11月19日 · Silent sinus syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by the collapse of the orbital floor in the presence of long-term asymptomatic maxillary sinusitis․ The condition can lead to enophthalmos and hypoglobus, with management focused on addressing the underlying sinus issues and potentially reconstructing the orbit․

Results: Four patients with enophthalmos and asymptomatic maxillary sinus disease were identified. On computed tomography, all four of the patients had opacified, partially collapsed maxillary sinuses with osteopenia of the sinus walls and …

2025年1月6日 · Chronic maxillary atelectasis (CMA) is characterized by a persistent reduction in maxillary sinus volume, resulting from inward bowing of its antral walls. Silent sinus syndrome (SSS), a rare manifestation of CMA, typically presents with significant bony structural changes but without the usual nasa …

2018年6月5日 · Silent sinus syndrom is rare and slow progressive disorder associated with asymptomatic chronic maxillary sinusitis and collapse of the orbital floor. The most common manifestations are enophtalmos, hypoglobus and pseudoretraction upper eyelid.

Silent sinus syndrome (SSS), first described by Montgomery in 1964 , is characterized by the spontaneous collapse of the maxillary sinus walls, resulting in the descent of the orbital floor. Clinical presentation typically includes painless progressive enophthalmos, hypoglobus, diplopia, orbital asymmetry, diminished malar projection, and ...
