Taking advantage of anesthesia for surgical procedures such as tonsillectomy or adenotomy, a sinuscopy of the maxillary sinus was performed in 45 children. A comparison was made between the results of this examination and sinus X-rays (Waters View), taken shortly before. In 66% of all cases the results of both examinations perfectly correlated. For the remaining cases only a slight discrepancy was found.
