Woakes' syndrome.
Аннотация
Woakes' syndrome is a rare entity defined as recurrent sinonasal polyposis with a consequent nasal pyramid deformity. Only a few cases are reported in the literature. The goal of this study is to present the features of Woakes' syndrome through a clinical case. A 42-year-old man presented with a history of ASA triad. He started self-medication for 5 years. He returned to the otorhinolaryngology department for the aggravation and persistence of symptoms. CT scans showed the deformity and thinning of the nasal bones. A functional endoscopic sinus surgery and correction of nasal pyramid deformity were performed. At 6 months' follow-up, good functional and aesthetic outcomes were observed. Woakes' syndrome was described more than 130 years ago. Treatment includes endoscopic sinonasal surgery and local treatment. Adequate management and good adherence to the therapeutic protocol could be factors to prevent this syndrome.
