The healingprocesses of the operated paranasal simuses ogerated in 8 cases by Akaike's sinoplastic method and in 3 cases by the method of radical polysinuectomy which call for the removal of sinus membranes was followed.The observation was performed by visualization of X-ray films using 40% M orjodol.From these observations the author concluded as follows.In m ost of the cases operated by sinoplastic method the sinuses were found to be in the same state as the time of operation 134_??_868 days after the operation.On the other hand in most of the cases operated by radical polysinucectomy various transformations were found in the operated sinuses, which may bring about drainage disturbances.
Keeping permanent adequate sinus drainage after radieal operation is very important and Akaike's sinoplastic method appeared as best for this purpose.
