Abstract
Precise methods of radial diagnostics of maxillary sinus diseases are rarely used nowadays due to their limited availability. At the same time, the high importance of computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography combined with CT (PET-CT) in the accurate diagnosis of hyperplastic inflammatory and non-inflammatory diseases of the maxillary sinus cannot be ignored.
The article presents 3 clinical cases of inverted maxillary sinus papilloma diagnosed in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Diagnosis was performed by CT, CT and PET-CT, CT and MRI. Treatment included centripetal rhinoscopic resection. Median follow-up in the postoperative period was 36.2 (24; 41) months. PET-CT demonstrated high efficiency in diagnostics of neoplasm in a patient with nonspecific signs of inverted papilloma - absence of ossification foci. Further study of the aspects of PET-CT application in the diagnosis of maxillary sinus diseases on larger samples within the framework of randomized trials is required.
