Abstract

Objectives: Antrochoanal polyps, particularly in children, have a tendency for recurrence when they are insufficiently treated and they increase the incidence of intractable chronic sinusitis. In all nasal polips, antrochoanal polips are observed in children five to eight times as frequently as in general population. Recently, the endoscopic sinus surgery has been the most remarkable approach in the treatment. That transcanine sinuscopy has been added in selected cases is important to prevent recurrence. Investigating allergic reasons in etiology may contribute to further medical theraphy. Case report: The patient given consultation by the department of pediatrics with complaints of nasal obstruction and cough for 5 months was a 9-year-old boy. There existed a solid polypoid mass which had fully filled the right nasal passage at anterior rhinoscopy. The view of the CT of paranasal sinuses was in accordance with antrochoanal polyp. Simple excision of intranasal part, limited uncinectomy, the maxillary sinus ostia widening and transcanine sinuscopy procedure were applied and all pathology was cleaned. Meanwhile, the eosinophilia on the nasal smear was viewed and total and specific immunoglobulin E tests and prick tests were carried out. Conclusion: We discussed the related therapeutic approaches in view of the case of that child who had developed antrochoanal polyp and who we had managed through minimally invasive surgery. Limits of endoscopic sinus surgery and importance of transcanin sinuscopy were emphasized in the child with antrochoanal polyp. Contribution of allergy to etiopathogenesis and its effects on medical treatment were mentioned.

Özet

Amaç: Antrokoanal polipler, özellikle çocuklarda, yetersiz tedavi edildiklerinde sık tekrarlamaya eğilim gösterirler ve kontrol edilmesi zor kronik sinüzit insidansını arttırırlar. Tüm nazal polipler içerisinde, çocuklarda genel populasyona göre 5-8 kat daha sık gözlenirler. Son yıllarda tedavideki en önemli yaklaşım endoskopik sinüs cerrahisidir. Seçilmiş olgularda transkanin sinoskopinin tedaviye eklenmesi rekürrensin önlenmesi açısından önemlidir. Etyolojide allerjinin araştırılması daha sonra verilecek medikal tedaviye katkıda bulunabilir. Olgu Sunumu: 5 aydır devam eden burun tıkanıklığı ve öksürük yakınmaları ile pediatri bölümü tarafından konsülte edilen hasta 9 yaşında ve erkekti. Anterior rinoskopide sağ pasajı tamamen dolduran solid polipoid kitle mevcuttu. Paranazal sinüs tomografi görüntüsü sağ antrokoanal poliple uyumluydu. Hastada intranazal bölümün basit eksizyonu, sınırlı unsinektomi, maksiler sinüs ostiumu genişletilmesi ve transkanin sinoskopi işlemleri yapılarak tüm patoloji temizlendi. Bu arada nazal smearda eozinofili bakıldı, total ve spesifik immünglobulin E testleri ile prick testi yapıldı. Sonuç: Minimal invaziv cerrahi ile tedavi ettiğimiz antrokoanal polipli bir çocuk olgudan yola çıkarak konuya ilişkin tedavi yaklaşımlarını tartıştık. Antrokoanal polipli çocukta endoskopik sinüs cerrahisinin sınırları ve transkanin sinoskopinin önemi vurgulandı. Allerjinin etyopatogeneze katkısına ve medikal tedaviye etkilerine değinildi.
