In most cases of chronic sinusitis, the clinical manifestation expresses altered physiology, which is the sequence to microscopically deranged histology, the exact nature of which has not been clearly defined. A careful study of surgical material from both acute and chronic sinusitis has been made for a number of years, and certain changes have been so universally observed that some definite explanation of the pathology involved has been formulated.
