Abstract
Disturbance in occular movements may be caused by a variety of diseases and such cases are often referred to rhinologists by ophthalmologists or internists.
The author reports five such cases operated intranasally, four of whom were cured and one alleviated.
Primary cyst of the sphenoid sinus, osteomyelitis of the maxillary bone, postoperative maxillary sinus cysts and multiple myeloma with sphenoid bone involvement were the causes of the occular symtoms.
The author discusses a variety of causative lesions and effects of intranasal surgical treatment in such cases.
