Non - healing granulomata and tumours of the nose and sinuses
نویسنده
چکیده
Many chronic inflammations of the nose are characterized by the formation of granulation tissue infiltrated by chronic inflammatory cells, namely granulomata. Most of these granulomata are the result of a specific infectious organism and are termed 'specific granulomata'. In others, the aetiology is less clear and they are termed 'non-specific granulomata' or more familiarly to the otolaryngologist as the 'midline hon-healing granulomata'.
