Abstract
Chest examinations of 2.827 patients, aged 2 to 77 years, with paranasal sinusitis, revealed that the frequency of sinobronchitis was 5.4% and the highest 36.9% being in age group of 2 to 5 years. Sinobronchitis seemed to occur in childhood below 15 years of age and pneumonia was the most frequent induced factor. In our series of sinobronchits, following treatments were performed: 1, conservative therapies for children (with occasional recurrence); 2. sinectomy, lung resection and conservative therapies for the adluts having unilateral bronchiectasis (most effective); 3. sinectomy and/or polypotomy and conservative therapies for the elderly adluts having chronic bronchitis or bilateral bronchiectasis, especially with hypoxemia.
