| Complete surgical closure of the nasal cavities for the treatment of atrophic rhinitis was first described by Young in 1967. These antimicrobial agents are not among the 4 antimicrobial agents authorized in Europe for growth promotion (14) but are used orally to treat bacterial infections such as group E streptococcal pneumonia or atrophic rhinitis and diarrhea (2).
