ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Inverted papilloma is a benign neoplastic lesion which shows high recurrence rate and possibility of association with malignancy. Medial maxillectomy has been preferred as a treatment of choice, for conservative treatments resulted in higher recurrence rate. However, introduction of nasal endoscope made more precise evaluation of intranasal lesion under brighter illumination.OBJECTIVES:
Aim of this study was to compare the recurence rate between medial maxillectomy and conservative surgery using nasal endoscope. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Thirty one patients who underwent operation between 1980 and 1995 were retrospectively studied.RESULTS:
Fifteen patients were treated via external approach and sixteen patients endoscopically. Inverted papilloma was recurred in two cases of endoscopic surgery group and one case of external surgery group.CONCLUSION:
Endoscopic conservative surgery can be an alternative surgical modality in the selected cases.
