Necessity of Transantral Ethmoidectomy in Caldwell-Luc Operation
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
This paper is a preliminary report of 50 cases of chronic maxillary sinusitis which have undergone Caldwell-Luc and de Lima operations. The pre-operative symptoms, physical signs, and pathological reports are analyzed.
In a later report an evaluation of post-operative recurrences and physical findings will be presented.
All 50 cases had transantral ethmoidectomy (E. de Lima procedure) at the time of the Caldwell-Luc operation. Biopsies showed chronic inflammation.
We intend to determine by follow up studies whether the incidence of recurrence of maxillary sinusitis is reduced by doing these two procedures concurrently.
