title: [Malignant neoplasms of the maxilla treated at the Otolaryngological Clinic, Medical Academy, in Poznań 1974-1987].
abstract: In years 1974-1987 100 patients with malignant neoplasms of the maxilla were treated in the Otolaryngological Department of the Medical Academy in Poznań. Eleven patients carried on a profession concerned with wood dust. The most frequent complaint was unilateral obstruction of the nose. Short history and at the same time a considerable progression of the neoplasm were conspicuous in those cases. The physical examination was completed by tomograms of the paranasal sinuses and in the last four years scanner examination. Unfortunately in majority of patients extensive neoplastic infiltration was found in stage T3 and T4. In spite of such a large infiltrate, changes in the lymph nodes of the neck were observed only in 14% of patients. The treatment included first of all an extensive operational procedure completed by radiotherapy.
