  • Title: [Adenoidectomy and nasal mucociliary transport].
    Author: Hellín Meseguer D, Merino Gálvez E, Armengot Carceller M.
    Journal: An Otorrinolaringol Ibero Am; 1994; 21(5):455-62. PubMed ID: 7810828.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with the research done by the AA. on the nasal mucociliary transport-time in a group of 30 children between 3 and 13-year-old. They employ the charcoal dust test. The powder is laid inside of the nose the day prior to the removal of the adenoids and investigated in the nasopharynx two weeks later. The conclusion drawn out is that among these children the mucociliary nasal transport time is retarded when compared with other children, turning over to the normality two weeks later.
