[Stenosed spaces of ostiomeatal complex and chronic sinusitis (an analysis of 94 cases)].

Objective: To discuss the relationship between the stenosed spaces of ostiomeatal complex (OMC) and chronic sinusitis, and the relative factors causing the stenosed spaces.

Method: Having nasal obstructing, discharging, headache and other clinical symptoms, 94 patients (179 sides of nasal cavity and sinus) were examined with coronal and high resolution CT scanning. The CT manifestations of the stenosed spaces and the anatomic variations of OMC were comparatively analyzed between the inflammatory sinuses and the normal ones.
