Aim: To analyze the association between apical lesions and sinus changes and to evaluate the agreement between the diagnoses of an endodontist, a radiologist, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, and an otolaryngologist. Materials and Method: 385 axial, coronal, and sagittal MSCT scans were selected using an image archiving andcommunication system (PACS). The examinations had been performed between 2018 and 2022. Results: Apical lesions were observed in 36.10% of sinusitis cases, 73.8% of unilateral sinusitis cases, 48.7% of sinus floor discontinuity cases, and 67.2% of cases in which endodontic treatment had been performed. Agreement between the diagnoses made by the endodontist and those made by the other investigators was high for most study variables (k &gt; 0.60). The exceptions were mucosal thickening, for which agreement between the endodontist and the other investigators was intermediate (k=0.397), and the presence of periapical lesions (k=0.010), previous endodontic treatment (k=0.013), and mucosal thickness (k=0.024), for which agreement between endodontists and radiologists was low. Conclusions: There was an association between sinus changes and apical lesions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.54589\/aol.37\/1\/79","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,27]],"date-time":"2024-06-27T02:56:16Z","timestamp":1719456976000},"page":"79-87","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Relationship between periapical lesions and sinus changes on multi-slice computed tomography scan"],"prefix":"10.54589","volume":"37","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1137-6041","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Val\u00e9ria","family":"CB Melo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2675-0884","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carlos","family":"ES Bueno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3320-9172","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandre","family":"S De Martin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carolina","family":"Pessoa Stringheta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9792-2260","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"GP Rocha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4201-4710","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wayne","family":"M Nascimento","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2802-1554","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gustavo","family":"H Sousa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8073-7082","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Livia","family":"Neri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4175-2121","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rina","family":"A Pelegrine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8611-3070","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hebertt","family":"GS Chaves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-0765-6992","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wiliam","family":"D Gomes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4633-720X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ana","family":"G Limoeiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2868-6839","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carlos","family":"E Fontana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"31696","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,30]]},"container-title":["Acta Odontol\u00f3gica Latinoamericana"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,27]],"date-time":"2024-06-27T02:56:34Z","timestamp":1719456994000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/actaodontologicalat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/aol_2024_37_1_79.pdf"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,30]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.54589\/aol.37\/1\/79","relation":{},"ISSN":["1852-4834"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"1852-4834"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,30]]}}}
