Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To explore the pathogeny, diagnosis and treatment of the noninvasive nasal sinus mycoses. METHOD: 11 cases with nasal sinus mycoses were analyzed retrospectively. All of them had undergone endoscopic operation. RESULT: After operation all cases got regular check up under endoscope. 9 cases recovered quickly. The other 2 had caseous matter in their maxillary sinus in the initial stage. After cleaning up the fungus ball and washing the maxillary sinus for several times, the surgical cavity became clear. 10 cases had been followed up for 6 months to 5 years and no recurrence occurred. The other one lost follow-up. CONCLUSION: Endoscopic operation is the basic surgical method to treat the non-invasive nasal sinus mycoses. Excising the focus thoroughly, correcting the abnormal nasal cavity structure and resuming the cleanout function of nasal sinus cilia are the principle of treatment.
