Abstract:
〓 Objectives: To analyze the pathological and clinical features of nasal respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma（REAH）, and summarize the diagnostic points, to improve the experience of diagnosis and treatment. Methods:The clinical data of 16 patients with REAH were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical manifestations, pathological features, imaging features, surgical treatment and prognosis were summarized. Results:16 cases of REAH were studied, 10 cases（62.50%） were associated with sinusitis, 1 case（6.25%） was associated with inverted papilloma, 1 case（6.25%） was associated with hemangioma. 5 cases（31.25%） had a history of nasal sinus surgery, including 1 case with 3 times of nasal sinus surgery, 1 case with 2 times of nasal sinus surgery, 3 cases with 1 time of nasal sinus surgery; 10 cases（62.50%） occurred in the bilateral olfactory cleft, 2 cases（12.50%） in the unilateral olfactory cleft, 3 cases（18.75%） in the unilateral middle turbinate, 1 case（6.25%） in the nasopharynx. All 16 patients were pathologically diagnosed as REAH. In the patients with lesions located in bilateral olfactory fissures, symmetrical widening of olfactory fissures and lateral displacement of middle turbinate were observed on preoperative sinus CT. The average width of bilateral olfactory fissures was （9.9±2.70） mm. The ratio of wide to narrow olfactory cleft was 1.21 ± 0.19. There was no significant difference in Lund-Mackay score between the two sides（P>0.05）. All patients underwent surgery under general anesthesia and nasal endoscopy. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 66 months, and no recurrence occurred. Conclusion:Preoperative diagnosis of REAH is facilitated by the combination of clinical manifestations and endoscopic and imaging features. Endoscopic complete resection can achieve a good therapeutic effect.
