Abstract

A case of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis with many antroliths is reported. A 52-year-old woman was introduced to our hospital for evaluation of an abnormal image on an X-ray film. Computed tomography showed a calcified mass in the right maxillary sinus and thickening of the antral mucosa. Under a clinical diagnosis of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis with antroliths, Caldwell-Luc operation was performed. On opening the right maxillary sinus, turbid and yellow fluid containing many stones shaped like polyhedrons was found. The 47 stones consisted of Ca, P, Mg, Na, S, I, K, Al, and the main component was CaPO4.
