Abstract

A prospective comparative study was carried out in patients attending ENT Out Patient Department of a tertiary care Hospital with an aim to determine the association of adenoid hypertrophy with chronic nasal and middle ear pathologies in those aged 18 years or above. Patients presenting between August 2020 and February 2022 with chronic nasal and middle ear pathologies who underwent diagnostic nasal endoscopy were seen for adenoid hypertrophy and its association was analysed statistically. Adenoid hypertrophy (AH) in 18-25, 26-35, 36-45 and 46-55 years age group are 56.25, 28.12, 12.5, 3.125% respectively with a male:female ratio of 3:1. None of the patients were above 56 years in the study. No statistically significant association could be derived between chronic nasal and middle ear pathologies with AH. AH is a vital cause of nasal obstruction in adult population with a rising frequency these days owing to allergy, chronic infection and increased pollution. The entire of the individuals presenting with nasal obstruction, snoring and other nasal symptoms and chronic middle ear pathologies; AH should at all times be kept in mind as a ground and the patients shall be appraised for adenoid hypertrophy.

成人鼻、中耳病变与腺样体肥大的关系。

我们对某三级医院耳鼻喉科门诊就诊的患者进行了前瞻性比较研究，目的是确定18岁及以上患者腺样体肥大与慢性鼻和中耳病变的关系。对2020年8月至2022年2月就诊的慢性鼻中耳病变患者进行诊断性鼻内窥镜检查，发现腺样体肥大，并对其相关性进行统计学分析。18-25岁、26-35岁、36-45岁、46-55岁年龄组腺样体肥大(AH)分别为56.25%、28.12%、12.5、3.125%，男女比例为3:1。在这项研究中，没有一个患者的年龄超过56岁。慢性鼻部和中耳病变与AH之间没有统计学意义的关联。由于过敏、慢性感染和污染加剧，AH是成年人鼻塞的重要原因，近年来发病率不断上升。所有出现鼻塞、打鼾等鼻部症状和中耳慢性病变的个体;无论何时都应将AH作为诊断依据，并对患者进行腺样体肥大的评估。

期刊介绍： Nationalism is one of the central issues of the modern world. Since the demise of the Soviet Union there has been a proliferation of nationalist and ethnic conflicts. The consequent explosion of interest in ethnicity and nationalism has created an urgent need for systematic study in this field. Nations and Nationalism aims to satisfy this need. As a scholarly, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary journal, it is designed to respond to the rapid growth of research in the study of nationalism and nationalist movements throughout the world.
