Benign formations of the nasopharynx (ENT organs) are often diagnosed - about 2-3% of the total number of cases. Most often, neoplasms that do not metastasize and do not recur after removal are localized in the larynx. They differ in histological structure. Less commonly diagnosed are benign formations in the nose and sinuses - fibromas, neuromas, angiomas. Sometimes mucosal polyps are classified as neoplasms. But they do not have the structure characteristic of tumors.
Benign tumors of the ENT organs grow more slowly compared to malignant tumors. But as the formation increases, it affects and injures nearby tissues and mucous membranes. If a benign tumor is ignored, the risk of its degeneration into cancer increases over time.
In most cases, patients consult a doctor with advanced forms of the disease, which are accompanied by more serious concomitant symptoms - elevated body temperature, weight loss, and apathy. Often they indicate that a benign formation has passed into a malignant stage of development.
