When the operative treatment of sinusitis maxillaris and ethmoidalis chronica is perfor med, especially when sinus maxillaris and ethmoidalis are operated on combinedly, it is con sidered that the post-operative treatment begins by inserting tampons for haemostasis. For this purpose, the authors made cylindrical tampons of polyethylene and have used them in 163 sides of 85 patients and have had excellent results. Important merits of this tampon are as follows. 1) It is no less effective than gauze tampons in checking the bleeding right after the opera tion and the post-operative bleeding. 2) It can be left in position for any length of time. 3) It drains secretions very effectively. 4) It maintains its shape and the hardness can be adjusted. 5) When removed, the tampon slides out easily with no pain to the patient. The bleeding occurred in no more than 4%.
