AMAÇ
Adenoid vejetasyon nedeniyle opere edilen hastalarda orta kulak patolojisi saptanmasında alerjik rinitin etkisi olup olmadığını SFAR kullanarak saptamaktır.
GEREÇ VE YÖNTEMLER
Bu çalışma adenoid hipertrofi nedeniyle 72 hastanın incelendiği retrospektif bir çalışmadır. 25 hastaya (Grup 1) Adenoidektomi+ventilasyon tüpü (VT) uygulaması, 47 hastaya (Grup 2) sadece Adenoidektomi uygulaması yapıldı. Adenoidektomi endikasyonu konulan hastalar yapılan fleksibl endoskopik muayenede nazofarinkste pasajı %70-100 arasında kapatan adenoid vejetasyonu saptanan hastalardan, VT uygulaması yapılan hastalar adenoid hipertrofi ile birlikte 3 aydan daha uzun süre aldığı tıbbi tedaviye rağmen gerilemeyen kronik effüzyonlu otitis mediaya (EOM) sahip hastalardan oluşmaktadır. Tüm hastaların değerlendirilmesi yapıldıktan sonra alerjik rinit semptom scoru (SFAR) kaydedildi. Grup 1 ve 2 hastalar SFAR değeri hesaplanarak karşılaştırıldı.
BULGULAR
Grup 1 ve Grup 2 hastalar SFAR ile alerji yönünden karşılaştırıldığında gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmamıştır. (p=0,150) Opere edilen hastalarda yaş ile birlikte alerjik rinit saptanması 7 yaşından büyük olan grupta istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artmıştır. (p=0,020) Cinsiyetin alerjik rinit saptanması üzerine etkisi saptanmamıştır. (p=0,829). Gruplar arasında SFAR değerlendirildiğinde Grup 1 ve 2 arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değişiklik saptanmamıştır. (p=0,273) Grup 1 de ortalama SFAR 10,50 ±0,71 iken, Grup 2 de 9,00±2,16 saptanmıştır.
SONUÇ
Bu çalışmada adenoid hipertrofi ve adenoid hipertrofiye eşlik eden EOM lı hastaların SFAR kullanılarak karşılaştırılmasında alerjik rinitin etkisi olmadığı saptanmıştır. Ancak kesin bir yargıya varmak için arttırılmış hasta sayıları içeren, diagnostik invivo ve invitro testleri içeren prospektif çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study is to determine whether allergic rhinitis exerts any effect on middle ear pathology in patients undergoing operation for adenoid vegetation by using SFAR.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
In this study 72 patients with adenoid vegetation were analyzed retrospectively. Twenty five patients (Group 1) underwent adenoidectomy and ventilation tube, while 47 patients (Group 2) underwent only adenoidectomy. Patients with adenoidectomy indications included those who were found to have 70-100% obstruction due to adenoid vegetation in nasopharynx via flexible endoscope, and patients undergoing VT included those who had intractable otitis media despite more than three months of treatment along with adenoid hypertrophy. SFAR was recorded after assessment of all the patients. Group 1 and Group 2 patients were compared using SFAR.
RESULTS
No statistically significant difference was found between Group 1 and Group 2 in terms of allergic rhinitis score measured by SFAR. (p=0,150) In the operated patient group, the rate of allergic rhinitis was significantly higher in those who are older than 7 years. (p=0,020) No impact of gender was found on the rate of allergic rhinitis. (p=0,829) No significant difference was found between Group 1 and Group 2 in the evaluation made with SFAR. (p=0,273) Mean SFAR score was found to be 10,500+0,71 in Group 1 and 9,00+2,16 in Group 2.
CONCLUSION
In this study no impact of allergic rhinitis on adenoid hypertrophy and adenoid hypertrophy accompanied with otitis media with effusion was found using SFAR. In order to reach a definitive conclusion, further studies with higher number of patients and which include prospective invivo and invitro tests are required.

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
