Abstract:ObjectiveTo observe on clinical effect of oral glucocorticoids after operation of nasal polyp, the application and mechanism of the oral glucocorticoids were discussed.MethodsTwentyeight patients from the 56 patients with nasal polyp surgery were randomly selected in the experimental group. The experimental group received oral administration of glucocorticoids and a nasal spray containing glucocorticoids. Twentyeight patients of the 56 patients were taken as the control group. The control group received oral placebo and a nasal spray of glucocorticoids. All patients were observed and compared the difference for symptoms, nasal mucosa and side effects at 2, 6, 12 and 24 weeks after mucosal surgery between the experimental group and the control group.Results①There were significant reduced in the experimental group for nasal mucosa edema, formation of scab compared with the control group at the 2th weeks after operation (P<0.05). And there was statistical difference in Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) between the two group(P<0.05);②At the 6th and 12th week after surgery, there was no statistical difference in VAS,nasal mucosa edema, formation of scab between the two group(all P>0.05). The nasal mucosa of the patients showed epithelialization, and he epithelializatjion in treatment group was much than that in control group;③At the 24th weeks after operation, there were no significant differencesin for the epithelialization time between the experimental group and the control group (P>0.05); ④Only one case after oral hormone had the knee pain, but symptoms disappeared gradually after drug withdrawal. The other patients did not show sleep disorders, weight gain, joint pain and other complications.ConclusionWith an improvement of selfperceived symptoms, oral glucocorticoid can safely and effectively relieve nasal mucosa edema and scab in patients with nasal polyps after nasal endoscopic surgery in a short time, but its effect cannot be effectively maintained after drug withdrawal.
