Deformities in median nasal clefts may range from a simple median scar at the cephalic end of the nasal dorsum to a completely bid nose with two dierent halves with separate median nasal walls.
Lateral nasal clefts range from alar scar like lines to triangular defects from medial canthus up to ala and aecting the nasolacrimal apparatus.
Multidisciplinary surgical correction is indicated.
Developmental Errors of the Nasobuccal Membrane
Persistence of the embryonic nasobuccal membrane, which separates the nasal cavity from the buccal space, gives rise to choanal atresia.
Choanal Atresia
Unilateral atresia is twice more common than bilateral and when unilateral, right-sided atresia is more frequent.
Unilateral atresia may be missed during early childhood and present with persistent unilateral nasal discharge.
Bilateral choanal atresia is an emergency.
Complete physical examination is done to assess for other congenital anomalies.
Apart from diagnosis, radiology in the form of CT helps in dierentiating it from deviated nasal septum, septal hematoma, turbinate hypertrophy, mid nasal stenosis, encephalocele, dermoid, hamartoma, chordoma, and teratomas.
After initial maintenance of airway (by a simple nipple or endotracheal intubation), endoscopic surgical correction is warranted.

RHINOSINUSITIS
Rhinosinusitis is an inammatory condition of the nose and paranasal sinuses.
Common cold caused by viruses is the most common form of rhinosinusitis.
Following viral respiratory infection, mucosal edema, and obstructed sinus ostia along with hypofunctioning of the sinus ciliary function leads to stasis of secretions in the sinuses.
Symptoms and signs of sinusitis appear when these sinuses become secondarily infected by bacteria from the nose and nasopharynx.
In pediatric population, approximately 0.5–10% of upper respiratory infections may evolve into bacterial sinusitis.
Other underlying factors associated with sinusitis are deviated nasal septum, adenoid hypertrophy, allergy, gastroesophageal reux disease (GERD), passive smoking, and systemic illnesses like immune deciency, primary ciliary dyskinesia, and cystic brosis and should be looked for in recurrent rhinosinusitis.
Based on the duration of symptoms, pediatric rhinosinusitis is categorized as acute (between 1 weeks and 4 weeks), subacute (4–12 weeks), and chronic (more than 12 weeks).

Section 5 Congenital/Pediatric Diseases296
Acute Bacterial Rhinosinusitis
Presentation—fever, facial fullness or pain, nasal stuness, purulent nasal discharge, dental pain, cough, and ear pain or fullness persisting beyond 10 days.
Severe headache, vomiting, seizures, focal neurological decits, periorbital edema, proptosis, and diplopia due to restricted extraocular muscle movement mandates CT to evaluate the complications.

Orbital complications constitute approximately 90% of the complications of acute rhinosinusitis (ARS).
Medical management is the mainstay of treatment of uncomplicated ARS, which includes antibiotic therapy for at least 10 days along with antihistamines, oral, and nasal decongestants, topical steroid, and nasal irrigation.
Patients with orbital complications are managed with parenteral antibiotics and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) with abscess drainage.
Chronic Bacterial Rhinosinusitis
Presentation—persistence of the above-mentioned symptomatology beyond 12 weeks.
Young patients may be irritable and may show behavioral changes.
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics for 3–6 weeks and oral decongestants, topical steroids along with saline irrigation.
Surgery is planned after failed medical management.
Preoperative CT scan is performed to know about the disease extent for complete disease clearance and anatomical abnormalities to reduce the risk of surgical complications.
Surgery consists of adenoidectomy ± FESS.
In pediatric patients, FESS does not have clinically signicant impact on facial growth.

CHRONIC ADENOID HYPERTROPHY
Adenoids are favorably situated in the nasopharynx to mediate immunological protection of the upper aerodigestive system against inhaled antigens. ey are small at birth, grow till 5 years of age and gradually get atrophied by adolescence.
Chronic bacterial infection, passive smoking, and gastroesophageal reux may lead to adenoid hypertrophy, which may obstruct the nasopharynx to variable extent.
Patients present with snoring, mouth breathing, sleep disturbances like restless sleep, night terrors, sleep walking, etc. hearing impairment, enuresis, and recurrent rhinosinusitis.
When associated with tonsillar hypertrophy, patients might have features of obstructive sleep apnea.
Diagnosis is made by endoscopic visualization of enlarged adenoids in older children and by lateral neck X-ray in young patients.
Medical management consists of aqueous nasal steroid spray.
Surgical removal of the adenoids is considered for signicantly enlarged adenoids causing obstructive symptoms as well as for recurrent or chronic sinusitis.
SPECIFIC LESIONS
Antrochoanal Polyps
Mostly seen in pediatric patients.
• ese are unilateral and arise from the maxillary sinus. Large polyp
extents up to posterior choana through the maxillary ostium and nasal cavity.
• Patients present with unilateral nasal stuness, nasal discharge, and
hearing loss due to middle ear eusion. When the polyp extends to the nasopharynx, patients might have bilateral nasal obstruction, mouth breathing, and mued voice.
• e CT scan helps in diagnosis and is performed prior to endoscopic
excision.
Allergic Fungal Sinusitis (AFS)
Less frequently seen in pediatric patients than adults. e details of the symptomatology and management are like the adult patients.

INTRODUCTION
Although involvement of the sinonasal cavity by systemic disorders is uncommon, a gamut of inammatory disorders may involve the sinonasal cavity (Flowchart 22.1).
Section 6 Systemic Disorders/Surrounding Structures Involving PNS302
Flowchart 22.1: Classication of systemic disorders affecting the sinonasal cavity.
(AIDS: Acquired immunodeciency syndrome; CVID: Common variable immunodeciency;
GPA: Granulomatosis with polyangiitis; IgA: Immunoglobulin A; SCID: Severe combined immunodeciency; SLE: Systemic lupus erythematosus).
INFECTIONS
Tuberculosis
Sinonasal cavity is an uncommon site of involvement.
Clinical presentation is nonspecic with nasal obstruction or catarrh.
Imaging ndings include enlarged adenoids with enlarged nodes.
Inammatory polyps mainly in the region of inferior turbinate or septal perforation may also be seen.
Leprosy
Nose may be involved in the lepromatous leprosy variant of the disease.
Mucosal thickening and septal perforation are seen, later causing saddle nose (Fig. 22.1).
Mucosal thickening in other sinuses has also been described.
Invasive Fungal Infections
Invasive fungal infections in the immune-compromised host can involve multiple sites especially lungs and sinonasal cavity (Figs. 22.2A and B) and are covered elsewhere in the book.

Syphilis (Treponema pallidum) Infection
Nasal manifestations of syphilis are infrequently seen nowadays.
While primary syphilis may have chancre of nasal vestibule, secondary form presents with copious nasal discharge, it is the tertiary form which has the most severe manifestations.
Soft tissue thickening (gummata) seen resulting in septal perforation and eventually the typical “saddle nose deformity”.
Congenital syphilis also presents nasal discharge and may cause septal perforation.
CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY DISORDERS
Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA)
Previously called Wegener granulomatosis.
Multisystem auto-immune disease of unknown etiology, disorder characterized by necrotizing granulomas with small and medium vessel vasculitis.
Section 6 Systemic Disorders/Surrounding Structures Involving PNS304
Characteristically involve the kidneys, sinonasal cavity, and lungs.
Laboratory investigations: Elevated antineutrophil cytoplasmic anti­bodies (ANCAs), but these may not be elevated in a fourth of patients.
Two forms: (1) Limited, and (2) Severe.
1. Limited: Where no threat to life/vital organs function (earlier used for renal sparing forms).
2. Severe: Severe forms need more aggressive management with cyclophosphamide or rituximab in addition to glucocorticoids.
Head and neck region involvement includes the following sites: Nasal cavity, sinuses, orbits, anterior skull base, upper airway, and temporal bone.
Sinonasal involvement:
• Imaging ndings in the sinonasal cavity primarily consist of nodular
and mucosal thickening with bone erosion and sclerosis due to neo­osteogenesis.
• Maxillary sinus is the predominant site of mucosal thickening. It is
indistinguishable from chronic rhinosinusitis except that nodularity
is seen more often in GPA
• Bony erosions occur more frequently in the anterior ethmoid regions
but other sinuses may also be involved
• e destructive changes begin in the nasal septum, spreading laterally
to the turbinates and then to the maxillary antra and subsequently to the other sinuses. Finally the sinonasal space appears as a single large cavity
• e hard palate is usually spared, though it can be involved occasionally
• Avascular necrosis due to vascular occlusion is the mechanism for
bone destruction
• Anterior skull base erosions may occur due to contiguous spread from
the sinonasal disease process
• On computed tomography (CT), sclerosis gives a layered appearance
with less dense and more sclerotic bone seen parallel along the sinus wall (Figs. 22.3A and B)
• On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), while the more dense bone
appears hypointense on T1-weighted images, the less dense bone may be hyperintense due to marrow in areas of neo-osteogenesis (vs periostitis) (Figs. 22.4A and B). MRI may reveal thickening and enhancement of the olfactory nerves in cases of olfactory nerve neuropathy with the patient developing anosmia.
Sarcoidosis
Sinonasal cavity involvement is seen in less than 1% patients of sarcoidosis.
Nodular mucosal thickening, or even polyposis may be seen, mainly involving inferior turbinates and nasal septum.

Septal perforations and hard/soft palate erosions are rare. Neo-osteo­genesis may be seen.
Relapsing Polychondritis
Synonym: Relapsing perichondritis/chronic atrophic polychondritis.
Chronic inammatory disorders aecting cartilage of pinna, nose, airway with arthritis, and hearing loss.
Nasal chondritis results in saddle nose deformity.
ere is no mucosal involvement hence no mucosal thickening/ hypertrophy seen (vs GPA).
