Abstract:
Objective To study the technique and clinical effect of endoscopic surgery using high frequency electrotome with suction device for nasopharyngeal angiofibroma. Methods In this study, we retrospective analyzed the clinical data of 10 patients treated between January 2009 and December 2015. All these patients were treated by endoscopic surgery using high frequency electrotome with suction device. The average blood loss during surgery, tumor residual, recurrent tumor and duration of recovery were evaluated. Results The tumor was completely removed in all 10 patients. The average blood loss was 465 ml, there was no postoperative complication, all patients had no residual tumor, and there was no recurrent tumor over a follow-up of 6~18 months. Conclusion Though it was not preoperative transcatheter arterial embolization, the endoscopic surgery using high frequency electrotome with suction device can be used to treated nasopharyngeal angiofibroma which either limited to nasopharyngeal cavities and paranasal sinus with intraoperative blood pressure control.
