This study evaluated pediatric antrochoanal polyps (ACPs), finding that combined endoscopic surgery ensures complete removal. Recurrence was noted in cases with less invasive primary removal.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Rhinology

Background:

  • Antrochoanal polyps (ACPs) are benign growths originating in the maxillary sinus.
  • Pediatric ACPs present unique diagnostic and surgical challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize antrochoanal polyps in children.
  • To evaluate surgical outcomes and recurrence rates for pediatric ACPs.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 10 children surgically treated for ACPs.
  • Evaluation of demographic, surgical, and histopathological findings.

Main Results:

  • Mean age of patients was 10.2 years.
  • Surgical approaches included middle meatal antrostomy and transcanine sinuscopy.

  • Recurrence observed in two cases primarily treated via middle meatal antrostomy.

    • Conclusions:

    • Combined endoscopic surgery (middle meatal antrostomy and transcanine sinuscopy) is effective for complete ACP removal in children.
    • Surgical approach impacts recurrence rates.
