Efficacy of vidian neurectomy in treating chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps combined with allergic rhinitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Auris Nasus Larynx

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Bucheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea. Electronic address:

Objective: To evaluate the impact of additional vidian neurectomy or posterior nasal neurectomy in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and allergic rhinitis (AR), compared to the outcomes of conventional endoscopic sinus surgery alone.

Methods: Up to May 2024, six databases were systematically searched. We evaluated studies that compared the clinical improvement of chronic sinusitis-related symptoms and endoscopic findings between the neurectomy group (endoscopic sinus surgery plus vidian neurectomy or posterior nasal neurectomy) and the control group (endoscopic sinus surgery only).

BACKGROUND Endometriosis is a condition where uterine lining tissue grows outside the uterine cavity, commonly on the ovaries and pelvic peritoneum, but can also occur in rare locations such as the cervix, lungs or pleura.

Description: Nonampullary duodenal polyps are found in up to 5% of all upper endoscopies; the vast majority are identified incidentally in asymptomatic patients. Although most are benign, adenomas are estimated to account for 10%-20% of these lesions. Most international guidelines recommend that all duodenal adenomas should be considered for endoscopic resection; this may be associated with a near 15% adverse event rate (predominantly bleeding and perforation) in prospective studies, with substantial local recurrence on surveillance.

Article Synopsis
  • A 58-year-old woman with a stomach lesion underwent tests revealing a lobulated mass, leading to a fine needle biopsy that suggested an inflammatory fibroid polyp.
  • The patient had laparoscopic surgery, and the postoperative analysis identified the lesion as a gastric hamartomatous inverted polyp (GHIP) due to its specific growth patterns and tissue characteristics.
  • The study emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between fibrous tumors and GHIPs based on ultrasound echo patterns, which can aid in accurate diagnosis.

Fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) are rare benign tumors that can occur in the urinary tract and are especially uncommon in the urethra. This report presents a case of a young man with obstructive symptoms caused by a urethral polyp, which was treated endoscopically. Fibroepithelial polyps can be a cause of urethral stenosis in young men and may also be encountered during the treatment of other causes of urethral narrowing.
