Abstract

Antrochoanal polyp (ACP) is usually unilateral and occurs most commonly in children. However, bilateral ACP in children is extremely rare. In this paper, we report two such cases of bilateral antrochoanal polyps removed by functional endoscopic sinus surgery and discuss the etiology, diagnosis and management of nasal polyps in children.
