ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To explore the independent factors affecting tissue inflammatory cells changes in recurrent nasal polyps.METHODS The clinical data of 31 patients with nasal polyps who underwent endoscopic surgery at the Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery,Yantai Yuhuanding Hospital from December 2007 to December 2021 were selected and analyzed by stepwise regression logistic analysis.RESULTS The number of tissue inflammatory cells in recurrent nasal polyps changed compared with that in primary nasal polyps,and the number and percentage of neutrophils in recurrent polyps increased(P<0.05).Logistic analysis revealed that smoking was an independent risk factor for eosinophilia in recurrent nasal polyps,increasing age was an independent factor for lowering neutrophils,and the comorbid allergic rhinitis and the time interval of recurrence were independent factors for lowering and increasing lymphocytes,respectively.CONCLUSION The number of tissue-infiltrating cells is altered in recurrent polyps compared with primary polyps.Smoking is an independent risk factor for eosinophilia in recurrent polyps.
