Nasopharyngeal lymphoid hyperplasia is usually a benign proliferation caused by chronic inflammation.
Nasopharyngeal lymphoid tissue hyperplasia is mainly due to various causes of lymphoid tissue hyperplasia in the nasal mucosa. There is a large amount of lymphoid tissue in the pharynx and submucosa. In children, the nasopharynx is lined with pharyngeal tonsils, or adenoids, which usually slowly atrophy by puberty.
On both sides of the nasopharynx, there are scattered lymphatic tissues under the mucous membrane around the Eustachian tube. When the lymphatic tissues in the pharynx are affected by the blood and the external environment, it will lead to pathological hyperplasia of the lymphatic tissues. This causes damage and symptoms in the organs related to the nasopharynx. If the lymphatic hyperplasia in the nasopharynx is normal and can be diagnosed by pathological examination, it can be left untreated if there are no obvious symptoms.
If the patient develops uncomfortable symptoms, he should go to the hospital for consultation and treatment in time.
