Unilateral choanal atresia: Presentation in adults.

P Duggal1, R Kajol, K K Duggal.   

Abstract

Unilateral choanal atresia usually presents later in life than the bilateral one and may present in adults. We discuss three cases of unilateral choanal atresia, which have presented in adult age group and with complaints not clearly pointing to the diagnosis. The role of CT scan in diagnosis and nasal endoscope in the treatment has been discussed.
