title: [Comparative study of standard radiology, sinusoscopy and sinusmanometry of chronic sinus pathology in the adult].
abstract: The aim of this study is to establish a correlation between Standard X-ray, sinuscopy and sinusomanometry, in case of chronic maxillary sinusitis. One hundred and fifty-three adults maxillary sinuses were studied. A good positive correlation was found between radiology and sinuscopy (44,5-89,5%). There is no correlation either between X-Ray and sinusomanometry, nor between sinuscopy (excluded ostium) and sinusomanometry. On the other hand, a very good correlation exists between maxillary ostium morphology and sinusomanometry (84,1%). The authors concluded that morphological and functional investigations of sinusal pathology are complementary and cannot be dissociated.
