The authors studied 80 children with sinusitis, all treated with amoxycillin and a decongestive preparation. The authors reached the conclusion that in 30 out of 80 children the third standard X-ray becomes normal without further treatment. In the remaining 50 children the usefulness of irrigation of the maxillary sinus was studied: one group was treated with antroscopy and sinuscopy while the second group did not receive this treatment (control). In both groups control X-rays were performed after three weeks. There was no significant difference between the two groups, which indicates that irrigation does not lead to a better cure. A correlation of 71% was found between X-ray findings and antroscopic findings. As a first treatment antibiotics are recommended.
