Theism Leading to Late Presentation of an Unusually Large Antrochoanal Polyp

A six-year-old boy was brought to the Otorhinolaryngology department of a tertiary hospital in rural central India by his parents with chief complaints of a mass hanging in the mouth, disrupted speech, and congestion of the nose for six months. There were also complaints of difficulty in swallowing solids and decreased sense of smell for the last two months. There was no significant past history. Family history was also insignificant. Local examination was done which revealed a bluish-grey cystic swelling in the left nasal cavity [Table/Fig-1] and a large reddish mass hanging in the oropharynx [Table/Fig-2]. The mass also extended into the oropharynx and was seen abutting the epiglottis.

Abstract

A six-year-old boy was brought to the Otorhinolaryngology department of a tertiary hospital in rural central India by his parents with chief complaints of a mass hanging in the mouth, disrupted speech, and congestion of the nose for six months. There were also complaints of difficulty in swallowing solids and decreased sense of smell for the last two months. There was no significant past history. Family history was also insignificant. Local examination was done which revealed a bluish-grey cystic swelling in the left nasal cavity [Table/Fig-1] and a large reddish mass hanging in the oropharynx [Table/Fig-2]. The mass also extended into the oropharynx and was seen abutting the epiglottis.
