SPHENOCHOANAL POLYP RIGHT WITH LEFT SEPTAL SPUR: RARE ENTITY
Journal Title: Era's Journal of Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Choanal polyps can be classified as antrochoanal, sphenochoanal or ethmochoanal polyps depending upon the site of origin, in comparison to common nasal polyps and antrochoanal polyps, reports of sphenochoanal polyps are relatively rare. Authors present a case of a 18 year old boy presenting to the clinic with unilateral nasal obstruction and nasal tone in voice, which was a diagnostic dilemma for the radiology department as it was misdiagnosed unable to be differentiated by CT scan. MRI scan of the patient confirmed the diagnosis of a sphenochoanal polyp. We aspire to widen the horizon of the knowledge by discussing the case and enabling timely diagnosis and treatment
