Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To further understand the advantage of radiofrequency treatment of hemangioma of nasal cavity under nasal endoscopy. METHOD: Fifteen cases with hemangioma of nasal cavity were treated with radiofrequency under nasal endoscopy. RESULT: The hemangioma of fifteen cases could be removed completely. The complication was absent. None of them recurred in six months to four years following up. CONCLUSION: This method has many advantages such as clear operation visual field, less hemorrhage and postoperative pain, no facial scar. The radiofrequency under endoscopy is valuable in treatment for hemangioma of nasal cavity.
AI evidence extraction
Structured fields below were generated from the paper’s abstract and metadata to make the evidence easier to inspect. Automated extraction may be incomplete or incorrect; verify important details against the original paper.
Main findings
Fifteen nasal cavity hemangioma cases were treated with radiofrequency under nasal endoscopy; all lesions were reported as completely removed. No complications were reported and no recurrences were observed over 6 months to 4 years of follow-up; authors also report less hemorrhage and postoperative pain and no facial scar.
Outcomes measured
- Complete removal of hemangioma
- Complications
- Recurrence (6 months to 4 years follow-up)
- Hemorrhage
- Postoperative pain
- Facial scarring
Limitations
- No control/comparator group described
- Small sample size (15 cases)
- Radiofrequency exposure parameters (e.g., frequency, power, SAR) not reported
- Follow-up duration varied (6 months to 4 years)
