[Clinical aspects of hypertrophic lesions of the sinusal mucosa].
Ninety-five cases mucous hypertrophy of the maxillary sinus spreading over several years are examined in this study. They are made conspicuous by radiotomografies. If an hypertrophy of a sinous mucous is often silent or is accompanied with a minor symptomatology (pharynx or ear troubles), in the other cases, it is accompanied with strong headaches. A simple exaeresis of the polype without instrumental operation in the ostium region leads to their disappearance. This rather surprising result allows us to wonder if an ostial dyspermeability is sufficient to explain the sinous headache mechanism.
