Maxillary Sinus Retention Cysts Protruding Into the Inferior Meatus

Sung‐Lyong Hong, Kyu‐Sup Cho, Hwan‐Jung Roh

Open full text 12 citations

Abstract

Although most of the maxillary sinus retention cysts are asymptomatic, a few of them increase in size and cause symptoms. However, they rarely erode bony walls nor protrude into the inferior meatus. I present 2 cases with maxillary sinus retention cysts protruding into the inferior meatus by making a large defect on the medial wall of the maxillary sinus.
