ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps is an uncommon pathology in the pediatric population and a challenging problem to otolaryngologists. In this study, we aimed to assess the clinical characteristics and postoperative results of children who underwent sinus surgery due to nasal polyps. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 45 pediatric patients who had sinus surgery from 2009 to 2012. We studied the relationship between clinical parameters and postoperative results. RESULTS: Forty-five patients (18 women and 27 men with an age range of 8 to 17 years) were treated surgically in our hospital. We found statistically significant correlation between the preoperative CT scores (p=0.043), the nasal obstruction symptom scores (p=0.032) and postoperative recurrence, but not between other parameters. CONCLUSION: In this study, prognostic factors affecting the postoperative outcome were preoperative CT score and nasal obstruction symptom score.
