Abstract
In the present paper, the author classifies the inflammatory disturbances of nasel cavity and paranasal sinuses from the view point of the pathergia advocated by Roessle. The author also states that, in the allergic disturbances of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, the determination of the allergen and desensitization are undoubtedly important. However, he emphasizes simultaneously the necessity to take an adequate measure considering the possibility of the presence of the non-allergic nasal pathergia. In the cases of the allergic nasal pathergia, the present paper recommends to direct proper attention to the focal infection. Further, the author advocates to handle the so-called “vasomotor nervous rhinitis” keeping in mind the fact that this disease is induced by the antigeny antiboby reaction, and the presence of various other reaction fostering factors.
