  • Title: Endoscopic management of inverted papillomas of the nose and paranasal sinuses.
    Author: Baruah P, Deka RC.
    Journal: Ear Nose Throat J; 2003 Apr; 82(4):317-20. PubMed ID: 12735164.
    Abstract:
    We performed endoscopic resection on six patients who had inverted papillomas of the nasal cavity. Disease was completely cleared in four patients after a single procedure, while two others--both of whom had bilateral disease--required repeat surgery. At follow-up, which ranged from 6 months to 5 years, all patients were disease-free. We believe that endoscopic surgery is ideally suited for the treatment of appropriately selected patients who have limited disease and who are likely to adhere conscientiously to a regular follow-up program.
