レ線造影剤注入後奇異な経過を辿れる1例—眼窩障碍と乾酪性上顎洞炎の成立

　私共は日常，上顎洞粘膜機能検査として上顎洞を穿刺し其後15％モルヨドールを注入し，そのレ線像の解読により診断の一指針としているが，穿刺針を眼窩内に穿刺せる事に気付かずモルヨドールを注入しその後感染を起し，而も反対側では当時注入せるモルヨドールが1年後の撮影でも尚認められ，手術により確認し得た1例を経験したのでこゝに報告し，諸賢の御批判を仰ぐ次第である。

Ashikawa and Misawa state that the proce-durs causing visualization of the maxillary sinus by instillation of radio-opaque substan-ces is not without danger. They report a case in whom the attempted instillation of molio-dol,in a man aged 22,instead of gaining en-trance into the maxillary sinus the intended destination, had gone into the orbital fossa with resulting infections of the surrounding tissues.In the same patient the moliodol instilled in the opposite maxillary sinus rem-ained without drainage from the cavity even after the lapse of 1 year since the procedure. The authors stress that simple as this proce-dure seem a due care should be given in its institution.
