Resumen
To assess the frequency of the lacrimal recess in the maxillary sinus (MS) in computed tomography (CT) of the paranasal sinuses. CT of the paranasal sinuses (CT PNS) done in a total of 78 patients. According to the discoveries, the MS were classified in two types: anterior or lateral. 41 CT PNS of 41 patients of a total of 78 patients preselected were excluded. 37 CT of the paranasal sinuses from 37 patients, in a total of 68 maxillary sinuses were studied. In the 33 right maxillary sinuses, 10 lacrimal recesses were found, 9 from male patients. Eleven left maxillary sinuses with lacrimal recess were found from a total of 35 left maxillary sinuses. From the analysis of 68 MS, a frequency of 30.9% of lacrimal recesses in the maxillary sinuses in CT was observed. 82 802-5
