ABSTRACT
Fibrovascular polyps originating from the hypopharynx
are very rare. Giant fibrovascular polyps originating from the hypopharynx
are benign tumors and can usually reach giant sizes within
a few years. They grow up usually asymptomatic for a long time.
Globus sensation, dysphagia, stridor, weight loss symptoms can be
seen. Fibrovascular polyps can be visualized by endoscopy, computed
tomography scan, and magnetic resonance imaging for determining of
originated place and surgical planning before surgery. Depending on
the origin, pedicle vascularity and size, the tumor can be excised by
transoral or cervical approaches. In this case report, we presented a patient
with a giant fibrovascular polyp originating from the hypopharynx,
that we excised transorally.
Keywords: Fibrovascular polyp; hypopharynx; esophageal neoplasm; surgery
ÖZET
Hipofarinksten kaynaklanan fibrovasküler polipler çok nadir
görülen tümörlerdir. Hipofarinksten kaynaklanan dev fibrovasküler polipler
iyi huylu tümörlerdir ve genellikle birkaç yıl içinde dev boyutlara
ulaşabilirler. Genellikle uzun süre belirti vermeden yavaş bir şekilde
büyürler. Globus hissi, disfaji, stridor, kilo kaybı belirtileri hastalarda
görülebilir. Fibrovasküler poliplerin kaynaklandığı yerin belirlenmesi
ve ameliyat öncesi cerrahi planlamanın doğru biçimde yapılabilmesi
için hasta endoskopi, bilgisayarlı tomografi taraması ve manyetik rezonans
görüntüleme ile görüntülenebilir. Kaynaklandığı yer, pedikül
vaskülaritesi ve fibrovasküler polibin boyutuna bağlı olarak, tümör,
transoral veya servikal yaklaşımlarla eksize edilebilir. Bu olgu sunumunda,
transoral olarak eksize ettiğimiz hipofarinksten köken alan dev
fibrovasküler polipli bir hastayı sunduk.
