Thanks for interesting techniques orientated manuscript.

The fig 1 and fig 2 with chart are unnecessary. Line 305, reference is not cited in the reference list. Ref 25 does not correspond with the with line 305, 306.

· We moved some paragraphs about medical therapy of odontogenic sinusitis from discussion to introduction, as suggested

Reviewer 2 Report

The authors mad excellent job. Study design, analysis, content and methods are of high standard. I have only a minor modification to ask for. Malignant neoplasms that are complicated with a maxillary sinusitis, are a total different story. Tumor surgery for these cases has other goals and other guidelines. Quality of life after these surgery is measured with other tools. Therefore, I believe that these should be mentioned thoroughly. These two articles contain useful information and can be cited.
