Giant inverted papilloma presenting as antrochoanal polyp- a case report
نویسنده
چکیده
Inverted Papilloma is a benign sinonasal tumor which generates considerable interest because they can recur and undergo malignant transformation. We report a case of giant inverted papilloma coming out of nasal cavity through the nasopharynx and hanging in oropharynx which was treated by transnasal endoscopic approach. The patient was asymptomatic 9 months after surgery. Endoscopic approach has a good surgical outcome in inverted papilloma. Endoscopic technique has the advantage of less postoperative morbidity and also gives an advantage for second surgery by the external approach should a recurrence occur.

Nasal polyps are an easily recognizable clinical entity. They result from the prolapsed lining of the ethmoid sinuses and block the nose to a variable degree depending on the size.
