Nasal polyps are very common but challenging to the practicing otolaryngology. From April 1, 1989 to September 30, 1989, serial allergy tests were performed in 16 patients with nasal polyp.
According to their symptoms, they were -divided. into 2 groups :negative allergy history group(group A) and positive allergy history group(group B).
The results- are as follows :
1. Positive reaction to the skin test were noted in 8 patints(50% ), 4 of them(40%) were in group A and 4 of them(66.7 %) were in group B.
2. Significant elevation of serum IgE level was noted in 2 patients (33.3 %) of only group B.
3. Blood eosinophilia was noted in 6 patients (37.5%), 4 of them (40%) were in group A and 2 of them (33.3%) were in group B.
4. Eosinophilia in nasal secretion was noted in 2 patients (20%) in group A.
We used chi-squired test to evaluate the statistical significance of each test results. There was no significant difference between allergy and non-allergy group.
