Abstract

About a series of 33 patients operated in the ENT Depart. Prof. Soudant-La Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital-Paris. Any emphasis was put on 11 cases of aspergillosis sinusitis. Most of the time, clinical signs are non specific. But X rays studies are of great help for the diagnosis. Treatment of chronic sinusitis of dental origin, particularly aspergillosis, remains surgical: caldwell-luc operation or endonasal approach. As a conclusion, the authors suggest systematic removal of all intrasinusal foreign body.
