Abstract

Choanal polyps are rarely seen and they rarely comprise clinical signs of dysphagia and dyspnea. 21-year-old female patient with the complaints of dysphagia caused by ethmochoanal polyp was presented and discussed with the literature 21-year-old female patient who had dysphagia and feeling of mass in the throat for 3 months was admitted to our clinic. Endoscopic nasal examination revealed polypoid mass originating from the posterior side of middle turbinate and extending to the oropharynx. In treatment, patient underwent limited sinus surgery and polypoid mass was totally excised by posterior ethmoidectomy. Ethmochoanal polyps is an extremely rare cause of dysphagia and choanal polyps should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of dysphagia

Özet

Koanal polipler nadiren görülmekle beraber çok nadir olarak disfaji ve dispne kliniği oluşturular. 21 yaşındaki kadın hasta, disfaji nedeni olan etmokoanal polip tanısıyla literatür eşliğinde sunulmuştur 21 yaşında kadın hasta 3 aydır var olan disfaji şikayeti ve boğazda kitle hissi ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Endoskopik muayenede sağ orta konka posteriorundan kaynaklanan ve orofarenkse uzanan polipoid kitle saptandı. Sınırlıendoskopik sinüs cerrahisi ile kitlenin posterior etmoid hücrelerden köken aldığı görüldü ve posterior etmoidektomi ile birlikte total eksizyon uygulandı. Disfaji nedeni olan etmokoanal polip oldukça nadir görülen bir durumdur ve disfaji ayırıcı tanısında koanal polipler akılda tutulmalıdır.
