Analysis of curative effect of orbital apex syndrome caused by sinus disease
Objective:To compare the efficacy of endoscopic sinus surgery and conservative treatment for or-bital apex syndrome caused by sinus lesions.Methods:The clinical data of 56 patients with orbital apex syndrome caused by sinus lesions who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into a surgical group of 21 cases and a conservative group of 35 cases.The clinical features and prognosis of the two groups were compared.Results:Among the sinus lesions in the surgical group,61.9％were fungal sinusitis,28.6％were bacterial sinusitis,and 9.5％were sphe-noid sinus tumors.In the conservative group,non-fungal sinusitis accounted for 65.7％and fungal sinusitis ac-counted for 34.3％.In addition to sinus lesions,patients had underlying diseases.In the surgical group,71.4％had hypertension and 80.9％had diabetes;in the conservative group,28.6％had hypertension and 42.9％had di-abetes.After a follow-up of 1 month to 5 years,the symptom improvement rate in the surgical group was 85.7％,with 1 case of recurrence.No recurrence was found after reoperation,while the symptom improvement rate in the conservative group was 22.9％,and 6 cases recurred after symptom improvement,and were trans-ferred to rhinology department.No recurrence was seen after surgery.Conclusion:Most of the sinus lesions in this study were fungal sinusitis.In addition,patients with underlying diseases such as diabetes,hypertension,ne-phrotic syndrome,etc.have reduced nasal immunity,which significantly increases the risk of disease.Since early nasal symptoms are not obvious,multidisciplinary cooperation in diagnosis and treatment is very necessary.Once imaging examination suggests orbital apex syndrome caused by sinus lesions,endoscopic sinus opening should be per-formed as soon as possible.
