A study of the laterality of cancer arising in the nose and sinuses in Cape Town shows that ethmoid tumours have a pronounced left-sided dominance irrespective of histology or racial group. This supports an exogenous cause for this site. These findings are discussed in the light of results from other clinical and epidemiological research. It seems unlikely that maxillary sinus cancer has the same aetiology as ethmoid carcinoma.
一项关于开普敦鼻和鼻窦癌发生部位的研究表明,无论组织学类型或种族如何,筛窦肿瘤都明显以左侧为主。这支持了该部位存在外源性病因。结合其他临床和流行病学研究结果对这些发现进行了讨论。上颌窦癌似乎与筛窦癌病因不同。
