Efficacy of the local application of dimephosphone in the treatment of exudation maxillary sinusitis in children
As many as 159 children aged 9 to 14 are examined for the clinical assessment of theefficacy of local application of 15% water solution of dimephosphone in acute and chronic purulent maxillary sinusitis. The normalization of the rhinoscopic picture in acute maxillary sinusitis in patients of the basic group is observed in 57 days, in chronic in 78 days, in the conrol group treated with 1% solution in 11 12 and 1214 days, respectively. The terms of normalization of the roentgenologic picture are approximately the same as the rhinoscopic one. The comparison of results of the effect of dimephosphone on the course of maxillary sinusitis with results of the treatment with dioxidine reveals more pronounced local antiinflammatory action of dimephosphone on the mucosa of maxillary sinuses and nose cavity.
