Infection of the accessory sinuses of the head has long been recognized as occurring in influenza. Frankel found B. influenzæ in 4 from 40 infected antra. Lindenthal, who was particularly interested in the question of sporadic influenza, found the bacillus in one or more of the head sinuses in six of eight carefully studied cases. He considered that the B. influenzæ remained in these areas during inter-epidemic times and from hence caused the sporadic outbreaks of influenza. Howard and Ingersoll reviewed the literature up to 1898 and grew B. influenzæ from one of three acute antral diseases. They did not find it, however, in 12 chronic cases. Clemens believed the influenza bacillus to be present in the sinuses rather frequently in cases where it was overgrown or difficult to culture from the lower respiratory secretions. Moszkowski grew it in one case from the pus of the antrum. Tedesko recorded several positive results and many others are reported in the literature. The two cases reported by Lacy (1918), the findings during the present epidemic by Stone and Swift of B. influenzæ in 13 of 28 sphenoidal and 6 of 12 ethmoidal sinuses cultured at necropsy, those by Spooner, Scott and Heath, of B. influenzæ in four frontal sinuses and in eight sphenoidal, and the recovery by Wolbach of B. influenzæ in cultures from the sinuses in certain cases where the lung cultures were negative, emphasize the importance and frequency of the infection by this organism in these cavities. Keegan, who laid particular stress on lung punctures and autopsy examinations, pointed out that in throat cultures the probability that the influenza focus is often not in the pharynx but in some recess of the nasal cavity. H. E. Robertson in the spring of 1918 reported the infection of the sinuses in seven cases of tracheo-bronchitis with patches of broncho-pneumonia and the growth of B. influenzæ from sphenoid, ethmoid or frontal sinuses of all these cases. He also found this organism in the sphenoid of six cases dying with various diseases as well as in two accident cases with death under 24 hours. The importance of these results was laid stress on by the author, not only on account of the probable toxic absorption and the general menace of spread, but, more particularly, because such individuals, acting as carriers, could furnish foci for the spread of epidemics. _Eye and Ear_
