RESUMEN
35 asthmatic patients and 35 healthy individuals were chosen for this study. All cases were subjected for detailed history, E.N.T. and chest examination and X-ray of the paranasal sinuses. Pulmonary function tests [F.V.C., F.E.V. and [F.E.V./F.V.C.]%] were done for adult cases. Chronic sinusitis was found in 28.3% of asthmatic patients and radiological changes were seen in 68.5% of asthmatic cases. Pulmonary founction tests showed that chronic sinusitis has no effect on the pulmonary function of the asthmatic patients
