Conservation surgery for inverted papillomas of the nose and paranasal sinuses showed a higher recurrence rate. Salvage surgery was successful for all recurrences, indicating careful consideration of treatment approaches is vital.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Rhinology

Background:

  • Inverted papillomas (IP) are benign tumors of the sinonasal tract with a significant recurrence rate and potential for malignant transformation.
  • Evaluating surgical treatment strategies is crucial for optimizing patient outcomes and minimizing recurrence.
  • Previous treatments and the extent of disease influence treatment success.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy and recurrence rates of conservation surgical treatment for inverted papillomas of the nose and paranasal sinuses.
  • To compare outcomes between conservation surgical therapy and more extensive surgical approaches.
  • To determine the role of salvage surgery in managing recurrent inverted papillomas.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 46 patients treated for inverted papillomas over a 10-year period.

  • Exclusion of 12 patients with concurrent squamous cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ.
  • Comparison of outcomes between patients treated with conservation surgery (n=14) and lateral rhinotomy/maxillectomy (n=20).

    • Main Results:

    • Five recurrences (15%) were observed, exclusively in the conservation-treated group.
    • Intranasal procedures alone had a high recurrence rate (66%), while Caldwell-Luc combined with intranasal approach had a lower rate (12%).
    • All patients undergoing salvage surgery for recurrence achieved successful treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • Conservation surgical treatment for inverted papillomas is associated with a higher risk of recurrence compared to more radical approaches.
    • Intranasal-only procedures demonstrate a significantly higher recurrence rate.
    • Salvage surgery is an effective option for managing recurrent inverted papillomas, but primary treatment choice impacts long-term success.
