This is the report of the clinical progress and the results of autopsy on a thirty-six-year-old male who finally died of general weakness after a radical operation on both sides of the sinusitis, which was followed by progressive gangrene of the nasal fossa and facies ossea with 39-40 degrees C. temperature.
The result of this autopsy showed a granulomatous change in the artery system and its surrounding parts of the general internal organs, and a socalled form of periartritis nodosa was seen. This structure-form looked like the result seen in the alucus phenomenon, which is known as an allergic medical change. From this point, the allergic change seemed to be the cause of death. It was concluded that a certain group of cases which resemble this case might have an allergic element as their cause.
