[Contribution of endoscopic laser coagulation in the treatment of multicentric sinonasal inverted papilloma. A case report].
OBJECTIVE
To describe a new method of treatment of multicentric sinonasal inverted papilloma by laser endoscopic coagulation.


METHODS
We report a case of multicentric sinonasal inverted papilloma involving the nasopharynx in a 62-year-old man. The treatment was a laser diod cauterisation.


RESULTS
The evolution was favourable without complications or recurrence after a 16 months follow-up period.


CONCLUSIONS
Laser endoscopic coagulation seems to be an effective treatment for multicentric sinonasal inverted papilloma especially for lesions with a difficult surgical access.
