Clinical Characteristics, Classification, and Management of Adult Nasopharyngolaryngeal Hemangioma

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Objectives/Hypothesis

To analyze the clinical features, classification, and treatment of adult nasopharyngolaryngeal hemangioma (ANPLH).

Study Design

Retrospective study.

Methods

From February 2009 to May 2020, 101 patients with ANPLH were reviewed and analyzed.

Results

Symptoms of ANPLH were frequently displayed as abnormal pharyngeal sensation and functional defection. According to lesion location, ANPLH was divided into five categories including nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal, laryngeal, and mixed types. The mixed type constitutes the highest portion, and the nasopharyngeal type is the least in our cohort. Most lesions could resect through natural cavity under endoscopy. Patients with mixed lesions had a higher rate of postoperative recurrence and planned multiple surgeries. Acceptable but not severe intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred in our patient cohort.

Conclusions

Patients with ANPLH are always symptomatic and even functional defective, which can be classified into five categories based on lesion location. For these patients, endoscopic surgery through natural cavity is recommended to remove lesions with fewer complications and favorable clinical outcomes.
