Post-adenoidectomy inflammatory pseudotumor.
2001
PROBLEM: Inflammatory pseudotumor is a rare pathology in the head and neck area. Multiple post-adenoidectomy complications have been described in the literature without alluding to such an entity. METHOD: A case report of an inflammatory pseudotumor following an adenoidectomy. MAIN RESULTS: Pseudotumor of the nasopharynx should be added to the list of possible complications of adenoidectomy. CONCLUSION: Inflammatory pseudotumor of the nasopharynx is a rare complication that confronts the otolaryngologist and the pathologist with a diagnostic challenge. Surgical excision remains the best therapeutic option.
