ABSTRACT
Malignant tumors of the paranasal sinuses are relatively rare. Generally squamous cell carcinoma appear to be dominant. Adenocarcinoma make up 12 to 15 percent of all nasal and paranasal sinus malignancies. Adenocarcinomas are most often seen in the middle turbinate and ethmoid sinus. We report 2 cases and discuss its clinical findings, the treatment and possible etiologies.

In a seris of 50 embryos and foetuses ranging from 20 mm to 190 mm in length two foetuses of 34 and 37 mm (48 to 50 days old) were found, that presented deformities of the septum of the cartilaginous nasal capsule, representing 4% of our material. The deformities consisted of curves of the nasal septum, located to both vomeronasal nerves. We therefore think that this study is interesting because it adds a new factor, the congenital one, to the etiology of deformities of the nasal septum.

In the curves obtained from rhinomanometry a mid-cycle rest (M.C.R.) is sometimes found to occur. The aim of this study was then to analyse the frequency of the M.C.R both in normal subjects and in subjects who had had a myocardial infarction. Rhinomanometry was therefore performed on 3 different groups of people, viz. 1 .32 normal subjects without any respiratory, cardial or any pathological problems. 2. 44 subjects who had had a myocardial infarction. 3. 34 subjects without any cardial problems. Rhinomanometry revealed that 50-60% of the second and third group had a poor nasal respiration. In the first group no M.C.R. was found in any of the subjects. In the second group over 50% of the subjects had a M.C.R. In the third group less than 50% of the subjects had a M.C.R. The x2 test was used to analyse these results as to their statistical significance. The x2 parameter was 3,84 with a significance of 95%, and 6,64 with a significance of 99%. Our result was x2=5,34 which seems to justify further study.
