“…In a retrospective study that included 76 patients with choanal polyps, the origin of the polyps was 65 in the maxillary sinus, 6 in the sphenoid, the middle turbinate in 2, the nasal septum in 2, and the ethmoid in one. 1 The first description was made in 1979 by Bailey.6 In the seven cases of patients with septocoanal polyps described in the literature, the distribution by sex was similar and the average age of the patients was 46years. The most frequent symptoms were unilateral or bilateral nasal obstruction, and snoring.…”

In this study we describe the case of a patient with a choanal polyp that was implanted in the posterior sector of the nasal septum and spread and occupy the entire rhinopharynx. It was resected by an endonasal approach with endoscopes and extracted by mouth. In the computed tomography, areas of hyperdensity were identified, which in the histopathological study were diagnosed as mature bone trabeculae (bone metaplasia). Seven cases of septochoanal polyps were found in the literature review and only two with bone metaplasia.

“…There have been only 13 cases of septochoanal polyp reported in the English literature. Four cases are men, five cases are women, and other cases are unknown [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. No case of a child have yet been documented in the English article, while antrochoanal polyp is more common in men and children [11].…”

“…All 13 patients of septochoanal polyp underwent surgical resection. Additionally, there were no cases of recurrence in septochoanal polyp (follow-up period: 3-12 months), while the recurrence rate of the choanal polyp is reported to be 6 to 7.5% [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The prognosis of septochoanal polyps might be better because it is easy to excise the polyp completely due to anatomical position.…”

Septochoanal Polyp on the Concave Side of the Deviated Nasal Septum

The septochoanal polyp is one of the choanal polyps derived from the nasal septum. They rarely occur, with only a few cases reported in the English literature. The etiology is still uncertain though it is thought to be associated with inflammation. Pathological findings generally show chronic inflammatory polyps and should be differentiated from other tumors. We report a case of a 32-year-old man diagnosed with a septochoanal polyp on the concave side of the deviated nasal septum. Previous reports have not mentioned the relationship between septochoanal polyp and the direction of septal deviation. This case is a practical example when considering the potential causes of the septochoanal polyp.

“…The main symptoms in patients with a choanal polyp are nasal obstruction, rhinorrhea, snoring, and nasal discharge [ 3 ]. Treatment to prevent the recurrence of choanal polyps involves complete removal of the base in the maxillary sinus mucosa and nasal polyp surgery using an endoscopic approach [ 4 , 5 ].…”

A case of unexpectedly difficult intubation caused by a large asymptomatic choanal polyp

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We report a case of unexpectedly difficult intubation in a patient with a huge but asymptomatic choanal polyp. A 77-year-old man with invasive bladder cancer was scheduled for total cystectomy under general anesthesia. However, tracheal intubation with a Macintosh laryngoscope proved impossible due to obstruction by a large oropharyngeal tumor. Using a video laryngoscope, intubation was successfully achieved. Choanal polyps are not uncommon, but large choanal polyps reaching the oropharynx appear relatively rare. Anesthesia and airway management for large oropharyngeal tumor has not been sufficiently discussed.

Retrospective analysis of surgical treatment of choanal polyps

Abstract: Endoscopic approach is a safe and effective procedure for choanal polyp treatment. There was no significant difference between the success rates of the endoscopic approach and combined approaches.
