Abstract
Since 1947, author operated on more than 1, 000 cases of the chronic paranasal sinusitis.
Good results, the author claims, can be obtained by simultaneous use of chemotherapeutic agents with conventional Caldwell-Luc procedure. The operatively opened maxillary sinus is closed for about 48 hours by obliterating both fenestrated opening in the nasal cavit y and gingival wound in the mouth. Then antibiotics such as Terramycin and/or Marfanil is instilled into the sinus cavity with hyauronidase. The operative technigue and method were described.
