Symptoms

Benign formations of the nasopharynx (ENT organs) are often diagnosed - about 2-3% of the total number of cases. Most often, neoplasms that do not metastasize and do not recur after removal are localized in the larynx. They differ in histological structure. Less commonly diagnosed are benign formations in the nose and sinuses - fibromas, neuromas, angiomas. Sometimes mucosal polyps are classified as neoplasms. But they do not have the structure characteristic of tumors.

Benign tumors of the ENT organs grow more slowly compared to malignant tumors. But as the formation increases, it affects and injures nearby tissues and mucous membranes. If a benign tumor is ignored, the risk of its degeneration into cancer increases over time.

In most cases, patients consult a doctor with advanced forms of the disease, which are accompanied by more serious concomitant symptoms - elevated body temperature, weight loss, and apathy. Often they indicate that a benign formation has passed into a malignant stage of development.

Diagnostic methods

One of the most informative methods for diagnosing oncological formations of the ENT organs is computed tomography. It allows doctors to determine the location of the tumor and structural changes in tissue.

Another common diagnostic method is tissue puncture under ultrasound control. The biological material obtained after puncture of the tumor is studied in the laboratory. To obtain a more accurate clinical picture of the development of the disease, additional diagnostic methods can be used:

  1. Blood test.
  2. Audiogram.
  3. Video endoscopy.
  4. Radiography.
  5. Tracheobronchoscopy.
  6. Laryngoscopy.

Additional examinations are prescribed taking into account the patient’s condition and tumor growth. They are necessary to determine the most correct method of therapy.

Features of treatment

The most common type of therapy for benign tumors of the ENT organs, widely used in domestic and foreign clinics, is surgical removal of the tumor. The type of operation and its duration directly depend on the size of the formation, structural features and density of its tissues.

  1. At the initial stage of the disease, doctors use gentle, short-term operations. They involve local removal of the tumor without affecting healthy tissue.
  2. In advanced cases, benign neoplasms of the nasopharynx are removed along with the affected mucous membranes and nearby lymph nodes. In a particularly difficult situation, the tumor can be removed along with fragments of the skull bones.

Modern surgeons, with complete or partial resection of the formation during surgery, can perform one-stage plastic surgery, reconstruction, and implantation of the affected organ. For inoperable forms of the disease, other treatment methods, including radiation therapy, may be used.

Methods of prevention

Research results have shown that those at risk of developing benign tumors of the pharynx, larynx, nose and its appendages are middle-aged people (mostly men) who abuse alcohol and smoking. If a person gives up bad habits, the chances of developing a tumor of the ENT organs are reduced.

If one or more symptoms characteristic of benign formations of the nasopharynx appear, it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive examination with a mandatory consultation with an ENT specialist. If the presence of a tumor is confirmed, you cannot self-medicate. The sooner the doctor prescribes an adequate method of therapy, the higher the patient’s chances of a full recovery.
