Abstract

|
|
Although nasopharyngeal stenosis is uncommon, it may occur after adenoidectomy, palatal surgery, or radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Compaired with conventional adenoidetomy, transnasal endoscopic adenoidectomy provides clear vision of the operative field and accurate removal of adenoid tissue without damaging neighboring structures. Therefore, it is generally accepted that transnasal endoscopic adenoidectomy reduce the risk of nasopharyngeal stenosis compared with conventional mothed. However, we experienced a case of nasopharyngeal stenosis after transnasal endoscopic adenoidectomy using microdebrider.
