    Otolaryngology in Japan has witnessed a unprecedented advance during the past thirty years. The outburst of developments went hand in hand with the recent advances in natural science, technology and introduction of medical sciences from abroad, especially from the U. S. A. Divisions and branches of this descipline now number nearly ten including the Society of Bronchoesophagology and the Society of Audiology.
    We look forward to seeing such changes and developments as follows;
    1. Various diseases in otolaryngology will undergo modifications according to changes in the pattern of living.
    2. Scientific and technological developments will lure otolaytngology into further subdivisinons.
    3. Changes in the age distribution in the general population will add to the changing patterns of various diseases in otolaryngology. Pediatric and geriatric otolaryngology will see new horizons.
    4. Immunology and genetics will play all the more important roles in shedding new light on etiology and pathogenesis of deieases. These will lead to more individual approach to each patient.
    5. An organized management by the medical staff and the battery of medical technologies shall herald an ideal medical system in the future.

    Three cases of foreign bodies that fell into the paranasal sinuses through injury are reported.
    Case 1. A 20-year-old man who was involved in an automobile accident was found to have a piece of glass lodged in his frontal sinus.
    Case 2. A 42-year-old woman who was involved in a car accident was found to have many pieces of glass which had penetrated into the left maxillary sinus.
    Case 3. A 60-year-old woman complained of a fistula in the right infraorbital region which was apparently caused by a bamboo splinter when she fell.
    In all these cases, the foreign bodies were removed succesfully and the patients recovered uneventfully.
    Ninety-two cases of foreign bodies of the paranasal sinuses appearing in the Japanese literature are reviewed and discussed.

    The authors reported a 31-year-old male suffering from a painless mass in the left submandibular region with eight months' duration. Examination revealed an elastic, hard mass which was movable and well-defined. The tumor and left submandibular gland were removed surgically. The tumor was encapsulated and measured 3.5-2. 5-2. 7 cm in size. Microscopically, it was a typical pleomorphic adenoma and consisted of adenomatous, myxomatous, and chondromatous elements.
    Eighty-three cases of pleomorpic adenoma of the submandibular gland appearing in the Japanese literature were reviewed over a 70-year period.
    The nomenclature, incidence, diagnosis and treatment of this tumor were discussed.

    A typical case of Garcin syndrome caused by a nasopharyngeal cancer is reported. The typical symptos of cranial nerve paralyses on the right side were evident at the time of her first visit to the hospital. The patient died in 9 months despite the various treatments which consisted of irradiation, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Postmortem examination revealed carcinomatous involvement of the cranial nerves at the base of the skull with infiltrations into the hypophysis but not into the brain stem.
    The strong resistance of the dura mater against infiltration of cancer may be attributed to the sparse distribution of lymph ducts and blood vessels in the dura mater particularly at its attachment to the bones.

    A patient with an animate foreign body in the external auditory canal obviously needs immediate help. Before removal of insects from the external auditory canal the author has used 8% Xylocaine spray against them for several years. Most insects were paralyzed in a few seconds after two or three sprays of 8% Xylocaine. It is clinically confirmed that Xylocaine is insecticidal to most insects, but harmless to stato-acoustic organs of patients.
    An application of Xylocaine to an animate foreign body in the external auditory canal is strongly recommended.
