The maxillary sinus is the largest of the paranasal sinuses. It is located within the body of the maxilla bone and communicates with the nasal cavity via an opening called the osteum. The maxillary sinus develops during fetal development and reaches its maximum size around 18 years of age. It has thin walls that are in close proximity to important structures like the orbit and teeth. Conditions like sinusitis or cysts can develop within the maxillary sinus and spread to surrounding areas due to its anatomical relationships. Precise knowledge of the maxillary sinus anatomy is important for dental surgeons to avoid complications during procedures involving nearby teeth.

INTRODUCTION
The oral mucosa is, in many ways, similar to the skin in its architecture, function, and reaction patterns. This section only emphasizes those characteristics of the oral mucosa that influence or result in a distinct group of pathologic entities.
Because of its location at the entrance of the digestive and respiratory tracts and its proximity to the teeth, the oral mucosa is subjected to numerous natural and man-made xenobiotics. The peculiar architecture and absorption characteristics of the oral mucosa, especially in areas of extreme thinness, coupled with the rich microorganism flora of the mouth, makes the oral mucosa a peculiar site deserving separate discussion.
Amelogenesis is the formation of enamel. During amelogenesis, the ameloblast (enamel-forming cells) undergo various stages i.e the life cycle of ameloblast.

Paranasal Sinuses (PNS) are air containing bony spaces around the nasal cavity. There are 4 pairs of paranasal sinuses(bilaterally) but maxillary sinus is considered most important to dentists due to proximity of maxillary sinus to orbit, alveolar ridge, diseases involving these structures may produce confusing symptoms. Hence precise information about surgical anatomy is essential to dental practitioners. the close anatomical relationship of the maxillary sinus and the roots of maxillary molars, premolars, and in some instances canines, can also lead to several endodontic complications. Clinicians must be particularly cautious when performing dental procedures involving the maxillary posterior teeth

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
2. Introduction
Paranasal air sinus
Paranasal air sinuses are the air filled mucosa lined cavities which
develops in the cranial and facial bones.
These are the spaces which communicates with the nasal airway.
These forms the various boundaries of the nasal cavity.
The sinuses are named for the bones in which they are located.
Paranasal sinuses are present in a variety of animals (including
most mammals, birds, and crocodile).
2
5. Definition of maxillary sinus
“Maxillary sinus is the pneumatic space that is lodged inside the body of
maxilla and that communicates with the environment by way of the
middle meatus and nasal vestibule.”
Anatomy of the maxillary sinus was 1st described by Highmore in 1651.
So it is also known as “Antrum of Highmore”
5
6. Development
Maxillary sinus is first of the PNS to develop.
It starts as a shallow groove on the medial surface of maxilla during the
4th month of intrauterine life.
Expansion occurs more rapidly until all the permanent teeth have
erupted.
It reaches to maximum size around 18years of age.
6
10. Anatomy
Largest of PNS, communicate
with other sinuses through lateral
nasal wall.
Horizontal Pyramidal shaped
Base
Apex
4 walls
◦ Wall thickness varies with
individual
Superior
Inferior (floor)
Lateral (posterior)
Anterior
11. Medial wall
Formed by lateral nasal wall
◦ Below-inf . nasal conchae
◦ Behind-palatine bone
◦ Above-uncinate process
of ethmoid, lacrimal bone
Contains double layer of mucous
membrane(pars membranacea)
12. Osteum:
Opening of the maxillary sinus is called osteum.
It opens in middle meatus at the lower part of the hiatus semilunaris.
Lies above the level of nasal floor.
12
13. The ostium lies approximately 2/3rds up the medial wall of the sinus,
making drainage of the sinus inherently difficult.
13
14. In 15% to 40% of cases, a very small, accessory ostium is also
found.
Blockage of the ostium can easily occur when there is
inflammation of the mucosal lining of the ostium.
14
15. Superior wall
Forms roof of sinus and floor of orbit
Imp structures
Infraorbital canal
Infraorbital foramen
Infraorbital nerve and vessels.
16. Posterolateral wall
Made of zygomatic and greater wing of sphenoid bone.
Thick laterally, thin medially
Imp structures
PSA nerve
Maxillary artery
Pterygopalatine ganglion
Nerve of pterygoid canal
17. Anterior wall
Extends from pyriform aperture anteriorly to ZM suture & Inferior
orbital rim superiorly to alveolar process inferiorly.
Convexity towards sinus
Thinnest in canine fossa
Imp structures
Infraorbital foramen
ASA, MSA nerves
18. Floor of sinus
Formed by junction of anterior sinus wall and lateral nasal wall
1-1.2 cm below nasal floor
Close relationship between sinus and teeth facilitate spread of pathology.
21. Nerve supply
Maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve, i.e. the posterior, middle and
anterior superior alveolar nerves, the infraorbital nerve and the anterior
palatine nerve.
21
23. Functions of the maxillary sinus
Humidification and warming of inspired air,
Assisting in regulating intranasal pressure,
Lightening the skull to maintain proper head balance,
Imparting resonance to the voice,
Absorption of shocks to the head,
Filtration of the inspired air.
23
24. HISTOLOGY
Maxillary sinus is lined by three
layers: epithelial layer, basal lamina
and sub epithelial layer with
periostium.
Epithelium is pseudo stratified,
columnar and ciliated.
As cilia beats, the mucous on
epithelial surface moves from sinus
interior towards nasal cavity.
28. Pathologic conditions of maxillary sinus
Maxillary Sinusitis
Odontogenic cystic lesions of maxillary sinus
Tumors of maxillary sinus.

29. 29
Oro-antral communication
(It is a pathologic tract that connects the oral cavity to the maxillary sinus.)
•Maxillary sinus perforation occurs occasionally during the extraction of a
maxillary tooth, and it may be a cause of maxillary sinusitis or oro- antral
fistula.
•Patient complained of regurgitation of food through the nose while eating.
31. Clinical Considerations:
31
•Oro-antral communication and oro-antral fistula
•The chances of creating an oro-antral fistula in patient less than 15 yrs are
comparatively lesser than in adults due to incomplete development of sinus.
•The distance between apical end of maxillary posterior teeth and floor of
sinus is approximately 1-1.2 cm. In some cases the gap may be still lesser.
32. Root which is most close to the sinus is “palatal root of maxillary
1st molar
Followed by :
◦ 1st premolar
◦ 2nd premolar
◦ 2nd molar
32
33. Conclusion
Due to close proximity of maxillary sinus to orbit, alveolar ridge,
maxillary teeth, diseases involving these structures may produce
confusing symptoms. Hence a precise information about the surgical
anatomy is essential to surgeons.
Knowledge of the anatomical relationship between the maxillary sinus
floor and the maxillary posterior teeth is important for the preoperative
treatment planning of maxillary posterior teeth.
Cautious when performing dental procedures involving the maxillary
posterior teeth.
