Radiologic aspects of inverted papilloma.
A series of 42 patients with inverted papilloma is presented. Of these, 38 patients had radiologic examinations. Thirty patients had comparable radiologic examinations in the form of X-ray of the sinuses and/or tomography and/or CT scan. The preoperative findings were compared and related to the extent of the tumor at surgery. Clinical examination combined with CT appears to be the optimal preoperative procedure. Follow-up should include CT in order to allow comparison with postoperative status and, preferably, also with preoperative radiologic findings.
