Orta konkadan kaynaklanan koanal polip: Bir olgu sunumu

Abstract

Koanal polipler sıklıkla sinüs orjinlidir ve bunların da büyük kısmı antrakoanal polip şeklindedir. Bunun dışında süperior konka, septum, kribriform plak gibi atipik lokalizasyonlar nadiren raporlanmıştır. Orta konka kaynaklı koanal polipler çok nadirdir. Bu yazıda endoskopik cerrahi teknik ile eksize edilen orta konkadan köken alan konka-koanal polip olgusu klinik ve radyolojik bulgular eşliğinde sunuldu.

Choanal polyp originating from the middle turbinate: A case report

Abstract

Choanal polyps are most frequently sinusal in origin and a great majority of them are in the form of antrachoanal polyps. Apart from that, atypical localization sites including the superior turbinate, septum, cribriform plate have rarely been reported. Cases of choanal polyps originating in the middle turbinate are very rare.  This paper reports a concha-choanal polyp case originating from the middle turninate, which was excised via endoscopic surgical technique, in the light of clinical and radiological findings.
