Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:The goal of this study is to determine the correlation of clinical symptoms of UAO (upper airway obstruction) with radiographic evaluation of adenoidal obstruction and tonsil size in children with adenotonsillar hypertrophy and to evaluate the usefulness of lateral neck radiography. STUDY DESIGN:Prospective study. SETTING:Haydarpaşa Numune Research and Education Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:This study analyses 95 children with one or more of the symptoms of UAO. Clinical symptoms were assessed by a standardized questionnaire evaluating the severity of symptoms. All patients underwent otolaryngologic examination and their tonsil sizes were graded. 74 of 95 patients underwent digital lateral soft tissue radiographs. Assessment of nasopharyngeal obstruction in radiographs was done according to four different methods. RESULTS:We did not find statistically siginificant correlation between symptom scores and radiologic measurements according to Johanneson (r=0.072, p=0.544, p>0.05) and Crepeau (r=0.034, p=0.773, p>0.05). The correlations between OSA score and Cohen and Konak's method and AN ratio were weak and not statistically siginificant (p=0.133, r=0.176; p=0.290, r=0.125 respectively; p>0.05). But, we found a statistically siginificant correlation between the tonsil grade and symptom scores (r=0.216, p=0.036, p<0.05). CONCLUSION:Our results have demonstrated that radiologic measurements of the nasopharyngeal obstruction do not correlate with clinical symptoms of UAO, but clinical assessment of tonsil size does.
