Objective:
To observe the long term effect of composite therapy on patients with nasal polyposis.
Method:
All 36 cases with nasal polyposis accepted antibiotic for a week and systemic corticosteroids for 3 days before operation, then underwent ESS. Systemic corticosteroids were used for 5 days and topic corticosteroids for 6 months after operation, then they were followed up by endoscopy for more than 3 years.
Result:
The symptoms were significantly improved after composite therapy. The effective rates of ventilation and headache were respectively 100% and 95%, the improvement of dysosmia is relatively poor. Catch cold and no use of topic corticosteroids can lead recurrence of nasal polyposis.
Conclusion:
Composite therapy is effective in the treatment of nasal polyposis. Using antibiotic for a week and systemic corticosteroids for 3 days before operation, making use of systemic corticosteroids for 5 days and topic corticosteroids for 6 months after operation , and a reasonable regular following-up by endoscopy , a suitable and prompt postoperative treatment are indispensable to improve the effect of treatment.
