In autopsy material naso-ethmoidal blocks were removed in 19 patients. None of the patients had a preceding rhinoscopy. Before removal, the maxillary and sphenoidal sinuses were opened and screened for polyps. After removal the total naso-ethmoidal complex was carefully examined for nasal polyps. The site of origin of the individual polyp was registered and documented photographically. Nine polyps were found in five patients, of which four had no history of asthma, allergy or sinusitis. Two patients had unilateral solitary polyps, three had polyps bilaterally. All polyps were found in the meatus. Eighty-nine per cent of the polyps were related to the clefts from the ethmoid. Polyps were not observed inside the ethmoidal and other paranasal sinuses.
在尸检材料中，对19例患者切除了鼻筛窦组织块。所有患者术前均未进行鼻镜检查。切除前，打开上颌窦和蝶窦并检查是否有息肉。切除后，仔细检查整个鼻筛窦复合体是否有鼻息肉。记录每个息肉的起源部位并拍照存档。在5例患者中发现了9个息肉，其中4例无哮喘、过敏或鼻窦炎病史。2例患者有单侧孤立性息肉，3例患者双侧有息肉。所有息肉均位于鼻道。89%的息肉与筛窦裂相关。在筛窦和其他鼻窦内未观察到息肉。
