[The effect of pulmicort on pediatric chronic sinusitis].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effective method in treatment of pediatric chronic sinusitis.


METHODS
Two hundred and ten children were clinically diagnosed as chronic sinusitis and randomly divided into three groups as pulmicort, rhinocort and routine treatment group, respectively. All the patients in different group were systemic treated by corresponding method for two weeks.


RESULTS
The effective rates were 84% for pulmicort treatment group, 61% for rhinocort treatment group and 48% for routine treatment group, so the effective rate for the patients treated with pulmicort were significantly higher than that with either rhinocort or routine treatment.


CONCLUSIONS
Pulmicort can be used to treat pediatric chronic sinusitis with higher effective rate.
