Thedifficulties associated in particular with assessment of the diagnosis of carcinoma in IP wherein five of seven cases overestimation of the finding occurred. The finding of cellular irregulari-ties and a higher number of mitoses did not correlate with the incidence of relapses. The mostimportant prognostic factor was radicality of treatment. Lateral rhinotomy with medianmaxillectomy is considered the method of choice in the majority of IP of the lateral wall.
