The author mada the cytologic study of the nasal discharge in chronic and acute paransal sinusitis.The results obtained were as follows:
1) Nasal discharge from the patients with chronic sinusitis showed neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, histiocytes and epithelial cells.the neutrophils were predominant in numbers being 98.66%, in which 55.38% were neutrophils with three-lobe nuclei.No changes were observed in the differential cell count during the course of the disease.
2) By the degree of the cellular degeneration, the author classified the nasal secretion into the several types.The regressive type and the regressive-degenerative type were seen in 72.10% of the cases.
3) The majority of the cells in the nasal secretion of acute paranasal sinusitis were neutro- phils being 99.30%, mostly the neutrophils with three-lobe nuclei.
4) Plasmocytes were not seen in the nasal secretion of both acute and chronic paranasal sinusitis.
