ABSTRACT

Foreign body displacement in an anatomical structure is a rare complication in which the maxillary sinus is most frequently affected, resulting in the development of sinusitis or, occasionally, an asymptomatic situation. The aim of this report is to describe the cases of two patients with foreign body displacement, as well as a current review of the literature. The present study reports two cases, a 55 year old female patient who underwent odontectomy of tooth unit (DU) 17, with surgical drill displacement into the right maxillary sinus, removed by a Caldwell-Luc approach, the patient was prescribed antibiotics and the therapeutic effects were quite satisfactory. The six-month evolution was uncomplicated. The second case describes a 64-year-old male patient, who 12 months previously had screws placed for skeletal anchorage of a surgical expander, one of the screws migrated into the left maxillary sinus, removed under the "Caldwell-Luc" approach and closure of the defect with a double-layer technique, indicating pharmacological therapy with satisfactory evolution.
