[Roentgenologic, endoscopic and ultrasound evaluation of the maxillary sinus after sinus lift with simultaneous endosseous implantation].
X-ray, ultrasound, and endoscopy were used in follow-up after sinus floor augmentation. In 23 out of 63 patients, healing was uneventful. Water's view revealed opacification of the maxillary sinus 1 week postoperatively in 40 patients, and opacification persisted in four patients. In these patients, endoscopy showed inflammatory reactions of the mucosa. Ultrasound proved to be a valuable tool in follow-up. Sinusitis occurred in three patients and was due to migration of bone chips in two of these. Out of 132 inserted implants, eight were lost during the healing period and three more during the loading period.
