Abstract

Rinolithiasis, a condition due to accumulation of organic and inorganic materials in nasal cavity, is referredtoas‘sinolithiasis’whenlocatedinaparanasal sinus. The maxillary sinus is the most common site of thesinolithsandtheymaybecalledas‘anthrolith’.The secondcommonsiteisthefrontalsinus.Sinolithiasisis ararepathologyofexogenousoriginanditmayrarely originate from dental filling materials, due to fistulization of tooth root to the maxillary sinus. Additionally, inflammatory process based on sinolith may cause polypoid degeneration inside the sinus and the nasal cavity.

Özet

Nazal kavitede organik veya inorganik maddelerin birikerek organize olması ile ortaya çıkan rinolitiyazis, eğer herhangi bir paranazal sinüs içerisinde görülürse sinolitiyazis adını almaktadır. Taş oluşumunun en sık görüldüğüparanazalsinüsmaksillersinüsolup,budurum ‘antrolit’ olarak da adlandırılabilir. İkinci sıklıkta ise frontal sinüslerde görülmektedir. Sinolitiyazis, sıklıkla ekzojen kaynaklı nadir bir patoloji olup kanal tedavisi uygulanan diş kökünün maksiller sinüse fistülize olması sonucudolgumateryalikaynaklısinolitiyazisnadirdeolsa görülebilir. Ayrıca, sinolitiyazis temelinde oluşan inflamatuar süreç nedeniyle sinüs içerisinde veya nazal kavitede polip de gelişebilir. Diş dolgu materyalinin etmoid sinüse geçmesi ve etrafında sinolit oluşması ise çokdahanadirdir.Buçalışmada,dişdolgumateryalinin maksiller sinüs içine ve daha sonra etmoid sinüse invagine olmasıyla ortaya çıkan sinolitiyazis ve beraberinde görülen inflamatuar sürecin sunulması ve tanısında tomografinin öneminin vurgulanması amaçlanmıştır.
