Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Sphenochoanal polyps (SCP) grow from the sphenoid sinus and occupy the nasopharynx.
OBJECTIVE AND RESULTS
To describe the clinical and diagnostic features of SCP, reporting two cases. Epidemiological study of the series in the literature. 8 published series were found (22 cases).
CONCLUSIONS
SCP is a rare lesion that is usually misdiagnosed for antrochoanal polyposis. A proper diagnosis and surgical treatment are the basis to prevent recurrence. We describe the first case of SCP with cacosmia.
