“…In present study the male to female sex ratio for sinonasal lesions was found to be 1.3:1 and for inflammatory lesions was 1.08:1. Dandapath et al [6] reported the sex ratio of 1:1 for inflammatory and tumor like lesions. Whereas for malignant sinonasal lesions we found a sex ratio of 0.75:1 comparable to Khan et al [5].…”

A variety of non-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions involve the nasal cavity, paranasal sinus and are fairly common presentation encountered in clinical practice. Sinonasal lesions are a common finding in all age groups. The lesion of nose and paranasal sinuses are very deceptive so, the presenting features, clinical examination, nasal endoscopy, radiodiagnosis and histopathology are employed conjointly to reach a diagnosis. This cross sectional study was conducted between November 2014 and September 2016. 150 patients with nasal or paranasal sinus lesions attending ENT OPD were included. Among 150 patients there was a male predominance in all lesion except malignant lesions and most of the patients 72 (48%) were in the age group 11- 30 years. Mean age of presentation for benign lesions was 33.64 years and of malignant lesions was 49.14 years. The study showed that 96 (64%) of the nose and PNS lesions were of inflammatory nature followed by 22 (15%) benign, 18 (12%) granulomatous and 14 (9%) malignant, Inflammatory polyp being the most common diagnosis. Haemangioma was the most common benign neoplastic lesion whereas in granulomatous lesions most common diagnosis was tuberculosis. The maximum lesions 74 (49%) were in maxillary antrum. The most common clinical presentation was nasal obstruction, with unilateral nasal obstruction seen in 84 (56%) cases and bilateral nasal obstruction in 50 (33.3%) cases. Angiofibroma 6 (4%) was exclusively seen in adolescent males. Olfactory neuroblastoma 4 (2.6%) was diagnosed in females with mean age of presentation of 30 years. Sinonasal lesions display a complex and interesting spectrum of clinical, radiological and histopathologic features. The non-neoplastic lesions are numerous, the morphologic variants of neoplasms are many and most of them present as polypoid masses which are impossible to distinguish clinically. Hence a proper workup including histopathological and radiological categorization is essential in the management of these lesions.

“…Busuttil et all(1978), nasal polyps were more common in the 4 th and 5 th decade so, their results did not correlate with our study. Dandapath et al(1993) observed 2nd and 3rd decade as the most common age group affected. The present study correlated with the study of Dandapath et al in which nasal polyps were common in second decade of life.…”

“…The present study correlated with the study of Dandapath et al in which nasal polyps were common in second decade of life. 8 According to KirtsreesakulV(2005) , in the general population, the overall prevalence rate of nasal polyps in adults is about 4%. The prevalence is much lower in children, except nasal polyps usually occurs in the age group of 30 -60 years when associated with cystic fibrosis.…”

The present study examined the patterns of sinonasal masses in biopsies received in department of pathology of Govt. CIMS, Bilaspur which is a tertiary care hospital of central eastern region of India and represents a tribal belt. During the study period, 91 biopsied reported were retrieved from the records and results analyzed. OBJECTIVE: This study is designed to find out patterns of benign lesions of nasal mass in patients attending Chhattisgarh Institute of Medical Sciences (CIMS), a teaching institute in Bilaspur Chhattisgarh. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 91 nasal biopsy records of March 2003 to August 2015 were reviewed. All the biopsy samples of patients were received and studied in department of pathology. RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS: Average age of subjects reported as non-neoplastic lesions is found 19.69 years with standard deviation of 9.44, ranging from 6 to 47 years. Among 75 nonneoplastic lesions, 63 (84.00%) reported as rhinosporidiosis, 10(13.33%) non-specific inflammatory polyp and 2 were (2.67%) tuberculosis. CONCLUSION: Rhinosporidiosis encountered as most common non-neoplastic lesion and most patients affected were in younger age groups. The study concluded with the exceptionally higher prevalence of rhinosporidiosis observed in this region.
