Sphenochoanal Polyp

Introduction The occurrence of isolated spheno-choanal polyps are not very common and can be very well confused with antro-choanal polyps or adenoids in adolescents and children. Appropriate diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are essential for its removal.   Case Report We report one such case of a 16 year old female who presented with complaints nasal obstruction and reduced hearing. Endoscopic polypectomy was done with complete removal of the polyp.   Discussion Sphenochoanal Polyp is often misdiagnosed and proper investigations are thus essential for its diagnosis. Surgical Approach is the mainstay form of treatment with complete excision of the polyp.

AbstractBackgroundAn ancient yoga technique called sutra neti, which is extensively used in India to keep the sinuses healthy, led to complete velopharyngeal stenosis in a 67-year-old male patient who presented with bilateral nasal obstruction, mouth breathing, anosmia and a change in voice.MethodThe patient was diagnosed by nasal endoscopy using a zero-degree Hopkins rod endoscope, and adhesions were released using coblation.ResultsThe patient had post-operative alleviation of symptoms and a patent velopharyngeal inlet on examination.ConclusionVigorous sutra neti can lead to velopharyngeal stenosis. Release of the stenosis is then required to cure the nasal blockade.

Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor

We report a case of recurrent Pindborg tumor (calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor) of the maxilla. The patient was a 34-year-old woman who had been previously diagnosed with Pindborg tumor and treated with curettage. She was subsequently referred to us for evaluation of nasal obstruction. Examination revealed the presence of a mass lesion in the right nasal cavity and right maxilla, which was identified as a recurrence of her earlier Pindborg tumor. The patient was treated with maxillectomy with orbital preservation. Pindborg tumor is a rare odontogenic tumor; when it does occur, it is more often seen in the mandible than in the maxilla. While this tumor is often treated with curettage alone, the aggressive nature of the recurrence in our patient necessitated radical surgery. We report this case to highlight the need to be suitably aggressive in treating these types of tumors in order to avoid recurrence.

Benign Tumours

AbstractOsteomas are common benign tumours of the paranasal sinuses, but are usually asymptomatic and found as a coincidental finding during routine radiological investigations. We present a case report of a patient with an isolated osteoma of the middle turbinate presenting with unilateral nasal obstruction which required removal via a lateral rhinotomy approach. The aetiology, pathology and presenting features of these tumours are reviewed and their subsequent management discussed. In particular, adequate pre-operative radiological assessment to determine involvement of the cribriform plate region by computerized axial tomography (CAT Scanning) is emphasized since this may indicate the need for a cranio-facial surgical approach rather than a lateral rhinotomy to achieve complete removal.

Sarcomatous Degeneration

Malignant degeneration in a juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma has been reported in the literature in only four patients. All of these persons had been previously treated for cure with gamma irradiation. The case report of a 47-year-old man with a 31-year history of nasal obstruction is presented. A recurrence excised 18 months after initial removal of an angiofibroma revealed the surprising diagnosis of fibrosarcoma.

Inferior Aspect

The nasal cavity presents with various types of neoplasms, including epithelial and mesenchymal tumors. Cavernous hemangioma of nasal cavity is quite rare. It usually presents as a unilateral mass arising from mucosa of nasal cavity. Case Report                                       We describe here, a case of 25-year-old serving soldier, who was referred to our hospital with a mass in both nasal cavities with bilateral nasal obstruction. On examination, the mass originated from the inferior aspect of inferior turbinate of both sides. Subsequently on histological examination after complete endoscopic excision revealed that the mass was a cavernous hemangioma arising from both inferior turbinates. Discussion To our knowledge, this is the first case of cavernous hemangioma arising from both inferior turbinate reported in literature.
