The objective of this study was to identify a reproducible clinical parameter for predicting relapses of nasal polyposis after surgery.
Ninety-three patients who had undergone ethmoidectomy of bilateral nasal polyps were followed for 3 years. Nasal polyps were obtained from all patients, and cellular suspensions were analyzed individually using flow cytometry. Based on the percentage of cells in the S phase, we identified three groups of patients (high, medium, and low percentages).
A relapse of nasal polyposis was observed in 15.00, 70.00, and 100.00% of patients from the low-, medium-, and high-percentage groups, respectively. Patients suffering relapses had a high percentage of cells in the S phase.
We identified two cutoff values for the percentage of cells in the S phase; above the first cutoff, some of the patients suffered relapses; above the second cut-off, all patients suffered relapses.
本研究的目的是确定一个可重复的临床参数,用于预测鼻息肉手术后的复发情况。
对93例行双侧鼻息肉筛窦切除术的患者进行了3年的随访。从所有患者中获取鼻息肉,并使用流式细胞术对细胞悬液进行单独分析。根据S期细胞的百分比,我们将患者分为三组(高、中、低百分比)。
低、中、高百分比组患者鼻息肉复发率分别为15.00%、70.00%和100.00%。复发患者的S期细胞百分比很高。
我们确定了S期细胞百分比的两个临界值;高于第一个临界值,部分患者复发;高于第二个临界值,所有患者复发。
