腺样体肥大是儿童的常见病之一,在临床常应用后鼻镜检查及鼻咽侧位片来决定是否需要手术治疗。两者各有其优点与不足。我们对40例儿童,采用口呼吸及鼻呼吸两种方式行鼻咽侧位拍片,并与后鼻镜直观检查对比,借以对此两种方法作出临床评价。 检测对象 选择40例经后鼻镜直观检查的患儿,男23例,女17例;年龄5～14岁。所有病例均有不同程度鼻阻、打鼾。其中11例伴有慢性咽炎,5例有鼻窦炎,24例有腭扁桃体肥大,19例耳听力下降。 Adenoid hypertrophy is one of the common childhood diseases, often used in clinical post-nasal examination and nasopharyngeal radiographs to determine whether the need for surgical treatment. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. We 40 cases of children, the use of oral breath and nasal breathing in two ways nasopharyngeal lateral film, and visual inspection of the posterior nasal contrast, in order to make a clinical evaluation of these two methods. Subjects selected 40 cases of post-nasal examination of children, 23 males and 17 females; aged 5 to 14 years. All cases have varying degrees of nasal resistance, snoring. Of these, 11 had chronic pharyngitis, 5 had sinusitis, 24 had palatal tonsil hypertrophy, and 19 had decreased hearing.
