OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to better characterize factors associated with refractory rhinitis in pediatric patients who underwent adenoidectomy compared to those who had symptom resolution.
METHODS: The authors conducted a case series of patients younger than 18 years old who underwent adenoidectomy at Boston Medical Center from October 2012 to December 2018. Patients who underwent tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy or who underwent adenoidectomy for indications other than rhinitis were excluded. Patients who had refractory rhinitis symptoms postoperatively were compared to those who had resolution of their symptoms using Chi-square analysis and t-tests.
RESULTS: One hundred three patients who had refractory symptoms following adenoidectomy were compared to 139 patients who had resolution of symptoms. Patients who had refractory symptoms had significantly higher proportion of use (89.3%, P = .0011) and higher mean number of preoperative (1.50, P = .0226) and postoperative (1.10, P < .0001) medications, including nasal saline, intranasal steroids, antihistamines, and/or antibiotics. They were more likely to receive postoperative allergy evaluations (50%, P = .0068) and repeat surgery (30.1%, P < .0001), and had a higher proportion of reported history of allergies (24.3%, P = .0089).
CONCLUSION: Use and number of preoperative medications, reported history of allergies, and postoperative allergy evaluation were significantly higher in patients with refractory chronic rhinitis following adenoidectomy. This study identified differences in patients who developed refractory symptoms that may help clinical decision making for surgical management.
