1]the apparent pathology appears to be antrochoanal polyp arising as a consequence to an attack of cold leading to an infection
ReplyDelete2]polyp seems to be arising frm right maxillary sinus extending in d right nasal cavity
3]the cause of bilateral nasal obstrusction is the growth of the polyp which has extended into the nasopharynx thus leading to blockage of the opposite choana
4]d/d- large choanal polyp
adenoid hyperplasia
large benigh and malignant tumours
5]management
polppectomy
in cases which have recurrance- caldwell-luc operation may be required to remove the polyp completely
and endoscopic sinus surgeries are prefferred these days viz fess
rohan
sir i have a question
ReplyDeletein cases of antrochoanal polyp does not recur after complete removal and ethmoidal polyp do is it because d latter is a single structure arising frm d sinus and d ethmoidal being multiple or any other reason is there????
