Nasofarinks biyopsi uygulanan hastaların klinikopatolojik verilerinin analizi: tek merkezli retrospektif çalışma

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, retrospektif olarak nazofaringeal patoloji nedeniyle biyopsi yapılan hastaların klinikopatolojik özelliklerini analiz etmektir. Materyal ve Metot: Ocak 2009-Temmuz 2018 tarihleri arasında nazofaringeal lezyonu tanımlamak amacıyla 535 hastaya biyopsi yapıldı. Klinik ve patolojik verileri retrospektif olarak kayıt edildi. İstatistiksel olarak analiz edildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 535 olgunun 311’ü erkek ve 224’ü kadın İdi. Yaş ortalaması 37.7±17’di. En sık izlenen benign lezyon reaktif lenfoid hiperplazi ve en sık malign lezyon nazofarinks karsinomu idi. Yaş arttıkça malignite saptanma oranının arttığı tespit edildi. Sonuç: İleri yaşlarda nazofarinkste tanımlanan lezyonların malign olma olasılığı yüksektir. Bu yüzden, semptomatik olgularda doğru tanı için öncelikle klinikopatolojik korelasyon gereklidir.

Analysis of the clinicopathological data of patients undergoing nasopharyngeal biopsy: a single centered retrospective study

Background: The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who underwent biopsy because of nasopharyngeal pathology in our hospital. Methods: Between January 2009- July 2018, 535 patients underwent biopsy to identify the nasopharyngeal lesion. Clinical and pathological data recorded retrospectively and evaluated statistically. Results: 535 patients were included in the study, 311 were male and 224 were female. The mean age was 37.7 ± 17. The most common benign lesion was reactive lymphoid hyperplasia and the most common malignant lesion was nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It was determined that the rate of detection of malignancy increased with age. Conclusion: Lesions identified in nasopharynx at advanced ages are likely to be malignant. Therefore, for correct diagnosis in symptomatic cases, firstly clinicopathological correlation is necessary.
