To better understand the clinical features of mass lesions of the tongue, we retrospectively evaluated frequency, recurrence rate, and complications in 296 patients who had undergone surgery for such lesions. The diagnoses were fibroma (43.6%), mucous cyst (14.2%), papilloma (11.8%), hemangioma (7.8%), granuloma (6.4%), lipoma (1.4%), schwannoma (1.0%), ectopic tonsil (0.7%), and other (13.2%). Recurrence was noted in two patients (0.7%). Twenty-two patients (7.4%) developed surgical complications, including lingual nerve paralysis (6.4%), glossodynia (0.6%), and postoperative infection (0.3%). Lingual nerve paralysis was observed in the ventral portion (42.1%) of the tongue, apex (36.8%), lateral border (10.5%), and dorsum (10.5%). When all sites were considered together, there was no significant difference in the number of patients presenting with lingual nerve paralysis (P = 0.075). However, there were significant differences in lingual nerve paralysis at the lateral border (P < 0.05), apex (P < 0.05), and dorsum (P < 0.001) but not at the ventral portion (P > 0.05) in the size of the patients with versus without it which suggests that the risk of lingual nerve paralysis is higher at the ventral tongue, regardless of tumor size. These results shed light on the clinical features of mass lesions of the tongue.

Recently, reports regarding a foreign body in the maxillary sinus have considerably increased, with the majority being iatrogenic cases resulting from dental treatment. This study involves an extensive review of the Japanese literature, including 112 papers from 1978 to 2017. These papers documented total 407 cases of a foreign body in the maxillary sinus. Among the 392 cases for which treatment details were available, the Caldwell-Luc approach was used for 216, the alveolar approach for 116, extraction using nasal endoscopy for 15, and extraction using oral endoscopy for eight. Spontaneous passage occurred in 19 cases, follow-up with medication was used in 17, and “other” was noted in one. This study determined that surgical removal remains the most common method for treating both tooth roots and other foreign bodies and that the Caldwell-Luc approach is used in majority of the surgeries. No marked differences were noted among the removal methods used in relation to the foreign body type.
