Abstract: Objective

To summarize and analyze the clinical features, diagnostic methods, surgical approach, prognosis, and clinical value of preoperative hyperselective vascular embolization for juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA).

Methods

Retrospective analysis of 31 patients with pathologically confirmed nasopharyngeal fibroangioma in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2007 to July 2018 was performed. All patients underwent clinical staging based on preoperative imaging findings (according to Radkowski staging, 11 cases in stage Ia, seven in Ib, seven in IIa, three in IIb, two in IIc, and one in IIIa) after which surgical plans were developed. Sixteen patients underwent nasopharyngeal angiofibroma resection via a nasal endoscopy approach, nine via a nasal-hard palate approach, five via an oral approach, and one via a nasal side incision approach. Among all patients, 13 patients underwent selective vascular interventional embolization before surgery.

Results

Three patients were lost to follow-up. The remaining 28 patients were followed up for 6 months to 5 years and five patients developed recurrence of the disease. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss of patients with hyperselective arterial embolization before surgery were significantly lower than those without embolization (P<0.05). Preoperative embolization rate and intraoperative blood loss were significantly higher in patients with stage II?III JNA (P<0.05).

Conclusion

The clinical manifestations of JNA are variable. Preoperative detailed imaging methods such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital angiography can help to perform accurate staging and develop a reasonable surgical plan. Preoperative Radkowski staging helps to guide the treatment of JNA. Preoperative hyperselective vascular embolization can reduce intraoperative blood loss, reduce the operation time, and reduce the recurrence rate significantly, which is worth advocating further.
