Background: In a typical ear nose and throat clinic, disease conditions involving the nose and paranasal sinuses are not uncommon. The aim of this study is to determine the clinicopathologic profile of these diseases as it occurs in university of Port Harcourt teaching hospital. Methodology: A retrospective descriptive analysis of all patients with diagnosis of sinonasal disease that presented in the ear nose and throat surgery department of university of Port Harcourt teaching hospital within the period of 5years (from 2016 – 2020). Data retrieved were biodata, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment, these were all collated and analysed. Patients without complete records were excluded. The patients recruited had clinical diagnosis which was aided by radiological investigations and confirmed by histology. Result: A total of 68 patients were studied within the 5year period. There were 35males and 33 females. The mean age was 33.96+/_17.9 years. The age groups 11-20 and 41-50 were more affected. Rhinosinusitis was the commonest condition seen while inflammatory polyp was the commonest histologic diagnosis. Polypectomy with bilateral antrostomy was the commonly done surgery in 26.4% age. Conclusion: Disease of the nose and paranasal sinuses are commonly seen in ENT practice and rhinosinusitis is the commonest entity encountered with inflammatory polyp as the commonest histopathologic finding. Squamous cell carcinoma was the commonest malignant lesion seen occurring more in males. Age distribution of the diseases was statistically significant.

Background: Sinonasal diseases usually required surgical management. There is increasing cases of poorly treatment by nonspecialist. This study aimed at determining sociodemographic features, indications, complication and outcome of sinonasal surgeries Materials and methods: This was a retrospective study of patients that had sinonasal procedures in our tertiary health care facility. The data collected were collated and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 18.0. Results:The proportion of sinonasal procedures among the patients was 31.6%. There were 58.8% males with male to female ratio of 1.5:1 Major presenting complaints was 57.3% nasal blockage and 52.8% catarrh/epistaxis. Common clinical findings were rhinorrhea and reduced nasal patency in 69.4% and 48.8% respectively. Sinonasal procedures in unilateral nasal cavity was 52.2% while right nasal cavity occurred in 29.6%. Outpatient clinic procedures was 66.7%, elective procedures accounted for 60.5% and major procedures accounted for 29.3%. masses is the commonest CT Scan findings in 20.3% followed by sinuses in 15.6%. Main diagnosis was 39.9% rhinosinusitis, 38.3% foreign body impaction and 10.8% nasal polyps. Common sinonasal procedures were 38.3% nasal foreign body removal, 10.8% polypectomy, 9.8% antral washout and 9.3% nasal packing. Main complication of sinonasal procedures were wound infection in 2.9% and recurrence in 2.6%. There was 76.2% patient's satisfaction with the sinonasal surgeries. Conclusion:Sinonasal surgery is common in all age group. Presentation were most late, complicated and advanced. It mostly presented as clinic and elective procedures in this study.
