phosphorus-radioisotopes and Maxillary-Sinusitis

To determine the effect of nuclein 32P colloid in treatment of chronic maxillary sinusitis (CMS).. 22 patients (31 sides) with CMS after washing of sinucavity were perfused with nuclein 32P in sinucavity. 20 patients (31 sides) with routine conservative treatment were served as a control group. Two groups were followed up for one year.. In nuclein group, 27 sides were cured, 4 sides were recurred and the rate of cure was 87%. In routine group, 19 sides were cured, 12 sides were recurred and the rate of cure is 61%. There is significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01). The treatment active of nuclein group is better than that of routine group.. Nuclein 32P colloid with the function of ionizing radiation can increase the pathogenic tissue immunocompetence and metabolic course, obstruct the microvascular and promote the absorption of inflammatory exudation and edema subsidence. It can also make the proliferous tissue atrophy thence accelerate the rate of cure of CMS.
