Sinusite Maxillaire Aiguë | 100% Internat ORL | Episode #2

🔴 Acute Maxillary Sinusitis: Causes, Symptoms, and Management (ENT) 🎓 Students | 100% ENT Residency This educational video from the 100% ENT Residency series is aimed at healthcare students (medical students, externs, and interns). In 3 minutes, it provides a clear, structured overview, consistent with current scientific data, on acute maxillary sinusitis, one of the most frequent ENT infections in clinical practice. Acute maxillary sinusitis is an acute inflammation of the maxillary sinus mucosa, most often of viral origin, sometimes complicated by a bacterial superinfection. It frequently occurs in the context of rhinopharyngitis and is based on well-described mechanisms of ostiomeatal obstruction and secretion stasis. 👉 In this video, you will discover: Definition and pathophysiology of acute maxillary sinusitis Clinical semiology: facial pain, rhinorrhea, general symptoms Criteria for distinguishing between viral and bacterial sinusitis Positive diagnosis and useful additional tests Principles of ENT management Indications for medical treatment (analgesics, decongestants, antibiotics) Progression, potential complications, and key messages for residency and exams 🧠 The majority of acute maxillary sinusitis cases resolve favorably with symptomatic treatment, without the systematic use of antibiotics. A rigorous clinical evaluation allows for the identification of complicated or bacterial forms requiring specific management, as recommended by international learned societies.
