| Popis: | Background: Inverted Papilloma arises from the lateral wall of nose and is common in maxillary sinus. It is locally invasive, can recur and has malignant potential. Endoscopic medial maxillectomy is the preferred choice. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted in the department of Otolaryngology, Nobel Medical College and Teaching Hospital, Biratnagar from June 2015 to June 2018. A total of 26 patients were included in the study, after informed consent and ethical clearance. Staging was done by Krouse method after imaging studies and preoperative endoscopic biopsy was performed. These patients then underwent endoscopic medial maxillectomy. All the data were collected in excel spreadsheet and analyzed in SPSS software. Results: Out of a total of 26 patients, male: female ratio was 1.6:1, with 16 male and 10female. Average age was 40.5 years (25-72years). According to Krouse staging, 2 patients were in Stage I, 7 patients in Stage II and 17 patients in Stage III. IP mostly involved the lateral wall of nose. Unilateral nasal obstruction was the commonest presenting symptom. The commonest post-operative complication was nasal crusting.
