Diagnostic methods
One of the most informative methods for diagnosing oncological formations of the ENT organs is computed tomography. It allows doctors to determine the location of the tumor and structural changes in tissue.
Another common diagnostic method is tissue puncture under ultrasound control. The biological material obtained after puncture of the tumor is studied in the laboratory. To obtain a more accurate clinical picture of the development of the disease, additional diagnostic methods can be used:
- Blood test.
- Audiogram.
- Video endoscopy.
- Radiography.
- Tracheobronchoscopy.
- Laryngoscopy.
Additional examinations are prescribed taking into account the patient’s condition and tumor growth. They are necessary to determine the most correct method of therapy.

Symptoms
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.
