OBJECTIVE: To discuss the complication of common anatomic variant of the middle turbinate-concha bullosa. METHOD: We present a 35 years old man with inner canthus proptosis and orbital pain who was diagnosed to be a pyocele originated from concha bullosa by CT and operation. RESULT: Concha bullosa can develop to a pyocele. Direct extension of the mass from the nose into the orbit may occur. Good therapeutic effect was obtained by endoscopic operation. CONCLUSION Concha bullosa can result in obstruction of middle meatus and lead to sinusitis. Polyps or mucocele may also occur to Concha bullosa itself. Pyocele of concha bullosa can develop to such a massive extent that it leads to orbital complication. Endoscopic operation is best treatment to this disease.

Objective: To explore the effect of vidian neurectomy and selective vidian neurectomy in the treatment of moderate and severe persistent allergic rhinitis (AR). Methods: A total of 60 patients with moderate-to-severe persistent AR treated in Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from June 2018 to June 2020 were selected, including 28 males and 32 females. A total of 40 cases in the observation group were subjected to vidianneurectomy, while, 20 cases in the control group underwent selective vidianneurectomy. Patients in the two groups were followed up at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years, respectively, and evaluated according to AR diagnostic and efficacy assessment criteria. Four symptoms of sneezing, clear runny nose, nasal congestion, and nasal itching were scored as efficacy indices before and at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after surgery. The regression of the lower turbinate swelling after surgery was assessed by nasal endoscopy or sinus CT. Postoperative tear secretion was followed up in both groups, and patients with dry eyes were counted in combination with ocular symptoms. SPSS 19.0 software was used to statistically analyze the data before and after the surgery and between the two groups. Results: The preoperative, 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year postoperative inferior turbinate signs were (2.73±0.45), (1.20±0.41), (1.25±0.49) and (1.30±0.56) points in the observation group and (2.75±0.44), (1.45±0.69), (1.75±0.72) and (1.90±0.85) points in the control group, respectively, with a statistically significant difference in the between-subjects effect test between the two groups (F=8.28, P<0.05), indicating a more durable surgical effect in the observation group. The total effective rate at 2 years after surgery was 95.0% (38/40) in the observation group and 50% (10/20) in the control group. The difference between the two groups by Fisher's exact test was statistically significant. No dry eye patient was found in either group at a 1.5-year postoperative follow-up. Conclusion: Both vidianneurectomy and selective vidianneurectomy have good recent treatment effects, vidianneurectomy has better long-term curative effects than selective vidianneurectomy.

OBJECTIVE: To study the treatment of OSAHS with nasal diseases by nasal operation. METHOD: Ninety four cases of OSAHS with nasal diseases were analyzed. The patients were operated on nasal cavity to improve ventilation included Septectomy, CPS for inferior turbinate and FESS. The patients were examined by PSG at 2 months and 1 year after operation. All patients were followed up one year. RESULT: Among 94 cases, 19 cases had efficient result after nasal operation and had no recurrence one year after operation. The efficient rate was 20. 21% (19/94). These patients were mild degree and I type. The other 75 cases had invalid result. CONCLUSION The patients of OSAHS with nasal diseases, especially mild degree and I type one should be undertaken nasal operation.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects and complications of surgery + chemotherapy and radiotherapy + chemotherapy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma recurrence, so as to compare the safety and efficacy of two different therapeutic methods. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 40 patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to June 2020. Among them, 26 patients were treated with surgery. The recurrent tumor was removed under nasal endoscope, and the frozen resection margin was negative during the operation. Chemotherapy was continued for stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ patients from 3 to 5 weeks after surgery. Fourteen patients received secondary radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Postoperative complications and survival rate were observed. Results:There were 14 patients in the secondary chemoradiotherapy group（control group） and 26 patients in the nasal endoscopic surgery group（observation group）. Among the 26 patients, 19 patients underwent nasal septal mucosal repair, 5 patients underwent temporal muscle flap repair, 2 patients underwent submental flap repair, 2 patients had nasal septal mucosal flap necrosis and cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and the temporal muscle flap was used for secondary repair in the second stage operation, and 8 patients needed cervical lymph node dissection. The patients recovered well after surgery, and the patients in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ were treated with chemotherapy after 3 weeks to 5 weeks according to the patient's wound condition. There were significant differences in the incidence of complications and 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates between the two groups（P<0.05）. Conclusion:Patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be treated by nasal endoscopic surgery to remove the tumor, and the use of pedicled nasal septal mucosal flap or temporal muscle flap for skull base reconstruction, The operation can effectively prevent major complications such as internal carotid artery rupture and hemorrhage, and improve the survival rate and quality of life of patients. It provides a safe and effective treatment for patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo describe the relevant factors of endoscopic surgery in patients with nasal septal perforation.

METHODSTwenty-three patients with nasal septal perforation were treated under nasal endoscope. Four kinds of reconstruction materials were used to accomplish the closure of perforation: residual osseous septum or temporalis fascia, inverting septal mucoperichondrial flap, autologous connective tissue insert overlaid with mucous flaps and turbinate flap. The reconstructed septum was packed by moist dressing with silicone or plastic splints.

RESULTSSeven patients underwent direct closure. Inverting flap repair for five cases, shifting flap closure for ten cases, and repair with turbinate flap in one case. During the follow-up ranging from four weeks to seven months, the successful reconstruction was achieved in 19 cases (82.6%). The problems in the remaining four cases were: mucosal flap displacement, fascia flap shrank and so caused reperforation, two perforations present with only the larger one repaired, the mucosal flap was smaller in size than the perforation.

CONCLUSIONSIntranasal endoscopic reconstruction surgery is a reasonable management for nasal septal perforation.
