Abstract
The authors have found that the nasal discharge of the patient with chronic inflammation of the maxillar sinus decreased after contrast radiography with Moljodol, a contrast medium, was performed. Several patients were treated daily by antral irrigation with Moljodol. The nasal symptome was greatly improved after the treatment, The nasal discharge was decreased and it was also found that the thickness of antral mucous membrane was decreased after the treatment. Sterilizing effect of iodine in Moljodol and excitation of kinocilia of mucous membrane by Moljodol may operate on healing of sinuitis.
