What is sinusitis?
Sinusitis is infection or inflammation of the mucous membranes that line the inside of the nose and sinuses. Sinuses are hollow spaces, or cavities, located around your eyes, cheeks, and nose. See an illustration of normal facial sinuses When a mucous membrane becomes inflamed, it swells, blocking the drainage of fluid from the sinuses into the nose and throat, which causes pressure and pain in the sinuses. Bacteria and fungus are more likely to grow in sinuses that are unable to drain properly. See an illustration of a blocked sinus passageway Sinuses can become blocked during a viral infection such as a cold, and sinus inflammation and infection can develop as a result. One key distinction between a cold and sinusitis is that cold symptoms, including a stuffy nose, begin to improve within 5 to 7 days. Sinusitis symptoms last longer and get worse after 7 days. There are two types of sinusitis: acute (sudden) and chronic (long-term). With chronic sinusitis, you're never really free from symptoms and always have a low level of sinusitis symptoms.

Medically speaking, we classify sinus infections according to the sinuses involved. For example, maxillary sinusitis indicates an infection of the maxillary sinus, which is located in the mid-face. We also indicate which side is involved: right maxillary sinusitis, left maxillary sinusitis, or bilateral maxillary sinusitis when both sides are infected. Any number of your sinuses can be inflamed at one time. When all are infected, the term pansinusitis is applied. Sinusitis is also classified by its duration and frequency: what we refer to as "acute" sinusitis versus "chronic" sinusitis. Acute sinusitis lasts less than six to eight weeks, or occurs less than four times a year. Chronic sinusitis is a persistent disease of more than eight weeks' duration, or more than four episodes of infection per year. Acute and chronic sinusitis are essentially different diseases with different symptoms and different courses of treatment.

Sinusitis
This factsheet is for people with sinusitis or for people who want to find out more about sinusitis. Sinusitis is inflammation of the linings of the sinuses (the bone cavities of the face) that surround the nose. Common symptoms include a headache and a swollen tender face.
What are sinuses?
The sinuses are air-filled spaces in your skull behind the bones of your face and forehead that open up into the nasal cavity. They are lined with the same membrane as your nose. This is called the mucous membrane and it produces a slimy secretion (mucus) to keep the nasal passageways moist and to trap dirt particles. People have four main sets of sinuses.
  • The frontal sinuses are on either side of the forehead, above the eyes.

Sinusitis
Medical Editor: William C. Shiel, Jr., MD, FACP, FACR What is sinusitis?
Sinusitis, inflammation of the paranasal sinuses, is one of the more common diseases that may afflict people throughout their lives. It is estimated that the average adult has three to four upper respiratory infections each year and that about 1% of these infections are complicated by sinusitis. In addition to sinusitis associated with these viral respiratory infections, many more people suffer inflammation of the sinuses as a result of seasonal allergic problems or hay fever . Other sources of irritation of the nasal passages which may lead to sinusitis include the use and /or abuse of over the counter nasal sprays and illegal substances that may be snorted through the nose. What are the paranasal sinuses?

Acute Sinusitis: A Cost-Effective Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment
L.J. FAGNAN, M.D.,
Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland, Oregon
A patient information handout on caring for acute sinusitis, written by Elizabeth Smoots, M.D. , is provided on page 1805. S inusitis is a common ailment: 16 percent of the U.S. population reports a diagnosis of sinusitis annually, accounting for 16 million office visits. Public interest in sinusitis is exemplified by a 1997 Internet search using Alta Vista, which found 4,960 matches. Furthermore, sinusitis is a costly disorder: about $2 billion is spent annually on medications to treat nasal and sinus problems. The National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) lists sinusitis as the fifth most common diagnosis for which an antibiotic is prescribed. Sinus Anatomy and Function The function of the paranasal sinuses is not clear, but theories include humidification and warming of inspired air, lightening of the skull, improvement of vocal resonance, absorption of shock to the face or skull, and secretion of mucus to assist with air filtration. The four paranasal sinuses (maxillary, frontal, ethmoid and sphenoid) develop as outpouchings of the nasal mucosa. They remain connected to the nasal cavity via narrow ostia with a lumen diameter of 1 to 3 mm (Figure 1) . The sinuses are lined with mucoperiosteum, which is thinner and less richly supplied with blood vessels and glands than the mucosa of the nasal cavity. Cilia sweep mucus toward the ostia. The ostia of the frontal, maxillary and anterior ethmoid sinuses open into the osteomeatal complex, which lies in the middle meatus lateral to the middle turbinate. The posterior ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses open into the superior meatus and sphenoethmoid recess. The osteomeatal complex is important because the frontal, ethmoid and maxillary sinuses drain through this area.

    Sinusitis: (Symptoms / Causes / Treatments)
    Sinusitis Overview
    Sinuses are air pockets that are located in your face - the cheek area under your eyes, between your eyes, just behind your nose, and in your forehead. The sinuses are attached to the nasal passages via small tubes, which allow drainage to take place. When these small tubes become blocked, sinus problems begin. Sinusitis occurs when bacteria infects the sinus cavities, usually due to blockage of the small tubes attached to your nasal passages. This causes an inflammation of your sinuses, which stops proper drainage.

    Sinusitis
    What is sinusitis? Sinusitis occurs when your sinuses are infected or inflamed. This condition can make breathing difficult and can also be painful. Healthcare experts usually divide sinusitis cases into:
    • Acute - lasts for three weeks or less
    • Chronic - lasts for three to eight weeks - it can also exist for months or years
    • Recurrent - several acute attacks within a year's time
    Healthcare estimates claim that thirty seven million Americans suffer from some form of sinusitis every year. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention receives reports from health care workers of over thirty three million chronic sinusitis cases annually. Millions and millions of dollars are spent every year on medications to find relief from sinus symptoms. What are sinuses? Sinuses are hollow air spaces in the human body. Symptoms occur in one or more of four pairs of cavities, or sinuses, known as paranasal sinuses . These cavities, located within the skull or bones of the head surrounding the nose, include the
    • Frontal sinuses over the eyes in the brow area
    • Maxillary sinuses inside each cheekbone
    • Ethmoid sinuses just behind the bridge of the nose and between the eyes
    • Sphenoid sinuses behind the ethmoids in the upper region of the nose and behind the eyes
    Each sinus has an opening into the nose for the free exchange of air and mucus, and each is joined with the nasal passages by a continuous mucous membrane lining. Therefore, anything that causes a swelling in the nose an infection, an allergic reaction, or an immune reaction also can affect the sinuses. Air trapped within a blocked sinus, along with pus or other secretions, may cause pressure on the sinus wall. The result is the sometimes intense pain of a sinus attack. Similarly, when air is prevented from entering a paranasal sinus by a swollen membrane at the opening, a vacuum can be created that also causes pain.

The primary functions of these sinuses are to warm, moisten and filter the air in the nasal cavity. They also play a role in our ability to vocalize certain sounds. Sinusitis, which is common in the winter, may last for months or years if inadequately treated. Sinusitis can affect the nose, eyes, or middle ear, and may be indicated by plentiful, thick, colored nasal drainage, bad-tasting post-nasal drip, cough, head congestion and an accompanying headache. Symptoms may also include a plugged-up nose, a feeling of facial swelling, toothache, constant tiredness, and occasionally, a fever. Types and causes of sinusitis There are two types of sinusitis: acute sinusitis , which is often caused by a bacterial infection. It usually develops as a complication of a viral respiratory infection, common cold, especially if symptoms last more than 7 to 10 days; and

    Sinusitis
    Sinusitis, also known as a sinus infection , is caused by inflammation and blockage of the sinus cavities. Sinuses are hollow pockets of air located on either side of the nose, behind and in-between the eyes, and in the forehead. The sinuses produce mucus that cleans and moistens the membranes of the nose and throat . Each sinus has an opening into the nose that allows for free exchange of mucus and air. Sinusitis occurs when these openings get plugged. As mucus and pressure build in the sinuses, a perfect breading ground for bacterial growth is produced. Sinusitis is very common; 30% of all people suffer from sinusitis at least once a year. Sinusitis can be acute (lasting about 3 weeks or less), chronic (lasting from 3 to 8 weeks or longer), and recurrent (several acute attacks per year). Sinusitis is caused by viruses (such as the common cold), asthma, allergens (such as dust, mold, and pollen), nasal polyps or anything that causes swelling in the nose. Sinusitis produces headache , pain, upper jaw and tooth ache, tenderness around the nose, forehead and cheeks, swelling around the eyes, ear ache and infection , fever, weakness, cough, and a runny nose or nasal congestion . On rare occasion, acute sinusitis can result in brain infection and other serious

    Treatment of Sinusitis at Mayo Clinic in Rochester
    (Synonyms: Chronic sinusitis) Paranasal sinuses are cavities within the skull that lead into the nose and are lined with the same type of membranes that line the inside of the nose. When one or more of the sinus cavities are inflamed, causing inadequate drainage of the sinuses, a condition known as sinusitis results. The infection can be bacterial, fungal or viral and can be caused by inflammation and allergies. Sinusitis can be divided into three categories: acute, subacute and chronic. Chronic sinusitis is extremely common and affects adults more than children.
    Treatment Options
    Patients who have chronic sinusitis that is, a sinus inflammation that persists for three months or longer should see their personal physician or an ear, nose and throat specialist (otorhinolaryngologist) for the appropriate treatment for this disease. Many times the disease is associated with asthma or allergies and treatment of those associated problems tends to help the chronic sinusitis. Antibiotics don't help chronic sinusitis in the long run because they target bacteria, which are not usually the cause of chronic sinusitis. Anti-histamines, nasal steroid sprays and systemic steroids are the mainstays of treatment today, depending on the symptoms of the patient.

The introduction of endoscopes in E.N.T has revolutionized treatment of these conditions. However, the latest addition to successful treatment of these disorders is the addition of the microdebrider, a powered tool for treating sinus-related disorders.
