[Analysis of sensitization spectrum and clinical features of children with adenoid hypertrophy and perennial rhinitis].

Objective

To investigate the sensitization spectrum and clinical features of children with adenoid hypertrophy and perennial rhinitis.Method:A total of 121 children with adenoidal hypertrophy and perennial rhinitis were enrolled in the ENT Department of the Children's Hospital of the Capital Institute of Pediatrics and the Allergy Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July to October in 2017. Nasopharyngoscopy was performed, and specific IgE were measured by blood sampling, and the sensitization spectrum and clinical characteristics of the children were analyzed. Result: Adenoid hypertrophy combined with allergic rhinitis accounted for 64.5% of the total, mold sensitization was the most common, accounting for 78.2% of allergic rhinitis patients, including boys accounted for 67.2%, gender differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Patients with allergic rhinitis had a more severe endoscopic appearance, with a higher proportion of 4 degree, accounting for 75.0% of the total number of children with 4 degree under the nasopharyngoscopy, and only 25.0% of children without defined allergens. There was a significant difference between this two groups(P<0.05).

Conclusion

Allergic rhinitis is closely related to adenoid hypertrophy, and the effect of allergen on the clinical manifestations of patients with adenoid hypertrophy should be emphasized.
