Although relatively rare, antrochoanal polyps represent one of the most common types of polyp diagnosed in children without cystic fibrosis. In an attempt to better define this entity and discuss treatment options, the histories and operative reports of all 25 children (aged 17 years and younger) diagnosed with an antrochoanal polyp between 1970 and 1997 at our institution were reviewed. All 25 children complained of nasal obstruction on presentation; other presenting symptoms included rhinorrhea (48%), snoring (36%), and mouth breathing (32%). All 25 patients were noted to have a mass in the nose on examination, and 16 (64%) also had a mass noted in the nasopharynx. All but 1 patient underwent surgical removal of the polyp: intranasal avulsion only, 2 patients; Caldwell-Luc procedures, 10 patients; intranasal procedures, 8 patients; and endoscopic procedures, 4 patients. Mean time to first recurrence was 44.5 months. Seven patients (29%) who underwent excision at our institution experienced recurrence, 3 after endoscopic procedures and 4 after intranasal procedures (with or without Caldwell-Luc; 1 of these patients had a second recurrence). Complications were unusual and included bleeding after pack removal (8.3%) and facial paresthesias (10%). Follow-up ranged from 2 days to almost 27 years and was aided by telephone interviews. We conclude that surgical treatment of these lesions is safe and effective. Endoscopic removal may result in a higher recurrence rate.

Abstract Background Many nasal pathological findings have been described with antrochoanal polyp (ACP). We aimed in this study to assess the prevalence of adenoid hypertrophy among children presented with ACP and to evaluate the efficacy of concomitant adenoidectomy on the outcome of endoscopic removal of the lesion. Results Forty-three children with ACP were included in this study. Preoperative nasal endoscopy and computed tomography were performed for all patients. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) with widening the maxillary ostium was used for removal of ACP in all patients. Associated nasal pathology was recorded and managed accordingly. The patients were followed up for at least 3 years postoperatively. Coexistent nasal pathology with ACP was detected in 39 patients (90.7%); adenoid hypertrophy was found to be the commonest concomitant lesion (83.7%). Adenoidectomy was performed during ESS for those who had adenoid hypertrophy. Postoperatively, no patients developed adenoid regrowth; however, recurrence of ACP was detected in five patients (11.6%). Conclusion Adenoid hypertrophy is a common pathological finding in children presented with ACP. Endoscopic removal of ACP with concomitant adenoidectomy is an effective procedure and has a favorable outcome.
