title: [A sino-pulmonary syndrome in pneumonologic practice--alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency in emphysema patients].
abstract: An illness in the arial of the paranasal sinuses was found in 43% of 120 persons with obstructive emphysema. In 40 cases the alpha 1-antitrypsin-concentration in serum was determined. The average of 1.73 +/- 0.19 g/1 was clearly lower than the 2.25 g/1 of normal-series. The clinical-therapeutic consequences and also the possible importance in work-medical examinations or expert-opinions of adequate occupational diseases will be pointed out.
