We describe a case of bilateral massive conchae bullosa in a 76-year-old woman. She presented with a 2-year history of nasal obstruction and frontal headache. In light of these and other findings on anterior rhinoscopic and endoscopic examinations, we initially suspected nasal tumors. However, after a prebiopsy evaluation by computed tomography, we diagnosed bilateral massive conchae bullosa that did not impair sinus ventilation. Endoscopic surgery was performed, and the patient's symptoms abated.
我们描述了一例76岁女性双侧巨大泡性鼻甲的病例。她有2年鼻塞和前额头痛的病史。根据前鼻镜检查和内镜检查的这些及其他发现,我们最初怀疑是鼻肿瘤。然而,在通过计算机断层扫描进行活检前评估后,我们诊断为双侧巨大泡性鼻甲,未影响鼻窦通气。患者接受了内镜手术,症状得到缓解。
