Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive assessment of sinus pathologies in cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients utilizing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Cleft lip and palate patients often exhibit abnormalities in the maxillary sinus region due to congenital malformations and surgical interventions. The objective of this analysis is to investigate the prevalence, types, and severity of sinus pathologies in CLP patients using CBCT imaging. A retrospective review of CBCT scans from CLP patients was conducted, and sinus abnormalities such as mucosal thickening, sinus opacification, and anatomical variations were identified and analyzed. The findings shed light on the spectrum of sinus pathologies in CLP patients and underscore the importance of comprehensive evaluation in treatment planning and management.
