[The local treatment of ozaena with streptomycin and novocaine (author's transl)].
The essence of this treatment is the injection of a mixture of 250 mgm of streptomycin (5 ml) and novocaine 1% (5 ml) on alternate days. The 10 ml mixture was injected into the conchae and submucosally into the septum on either side. Cure generally required a total of 2--3 gm of streptomycin over 15--20 days. Review of 25 cases treated over the past 15 years showed that 44% became symptom free and "good" results occurred in another 40%. In 16% treatment proved ineffective. Rehabilation was manifest by relief of subjective symptoms and disappearance of crusting and foetor. Atrophy remained irreversible.
