Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2011, Vol 65, Issue 3
Abstract
SUMMARY Antrochoanal polyps are more frequent in children than in adults. Pato-mechanism of their development is stili unclear. New diagnostic methods allow precise examination of lateral nasal wali pathologies. Aim of the study: Aim of the study is an evaluation of endoscopic examina-tions and CT scans of lateral walls in 15 children with chronic sinusitis and diagnosed antrochanal polyps. Material and methods: Both groups of children, those with chronic sinusitis and those with diagnosed antrochoanal polyps, were compared according to the results of the endocopies and CT scans. Results: Unilateral pathologies of lateral nasal wali, like notable widening of natural ostium in 4 children and additional ostium in 7 children with antro-choanal polyps were noted. In children with chronic sinusitis pathologies were observed bilaterally, in none of them additional ostia were observed and pathologies of lateral nasal wali were typical for chronic inflammatory process or trauma. Conclusion: Diagnosed pathologies of lateral nasal wali in both children are different and need further studies, which may lead to explanation of antro-choanal polyps development.
