Abstract

Silent sinus syndrome is a rare clinical entity typically characterized by spontaneous and progressive enophthalmos and hypoglobus caused by an alteration of the normal orbital architecture and function from maxillary collapse in the setting of the chronic maxillary sinus hypoventilation. The authors report an unusual case revealed by mild dental pain, present the imaging (before, during and after the development of the disease), discuss the different theories related to pathogenesis and comment the treatment.
