Summary

Silent sinus syndrome (SSS) is a rare disease of the maxillary sinus. It is characterized by idiopathic and spontaneous enophthalmos due to the collapse of the orbital floor and maxillary sinus atelectasis. In our case report we describe a 17 –⁠ teen years old women with and accidental finding of SSS. The absence of typical clinical symptoms, low patient age and non-standard diagnostic procedures make this case interesting. The pathophysiology, symptomatology, diagnostic management and treatment are discussed.
