Abstract: Eighty cases of ecchordosis physaliphora were analyzed, of whom 22 cases were found to have symptoms of ear-nose-throat, which account for 27.5% of the total. There were 13 cases with initial symptoms of ear-nose-throat, which accounted for 16.25%. This indicates that ecchordosis physaliphora may cause ear-nose-throat symptoms. Clinical data analysis reveals that the symptoms of ear-nose-throat caused by ecchordsis physaliphora often last for a long time. It is difficult to make a definite diagnosis for those patients with tinnitus, nasal obstruction and problems on laryngeal part of pharynx. For those young patients who have not intracranial hypertension, and no improvement on ear-nose-throat symptoms after treatment, doctors should give them a CT/MRI examination in time, so as to rule out the possibility of suffering from ecchordosis physaliphora.
