Title: Solitary polyps of the uncinate process. Author: Cagici CA, Ozer C, Yilmaz I, Bolat FA, Cakmak O. Journal: Ear Nose Throat J; 2007 Feb; 86(2):94-6. PubMed ID: 17385617. Abstract: Cases of a solitary polyp of the nasal cavity are much less common than cases of massive polyposis. The most important factor in the formation of solitary polyps is the anatomic variations that result in mucosal contacts. We report the case of a patient who had bilateral solitary polyps of the uncinate process. Radiologic and clinical examinations revealed a medially bent uncinate process in the right nasal cavity and a bifid uncinate process in the left nasal cavity. These structures were the origins of the polyps.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
