The patients were clinically evaluated by history, endoscopic and radiological examination. All surgeries was done under general anesthesia and the pre lacrimal recess approach was used after failure of complete removal of the lesions through widened Middle Meatal Antrostomy (MMA). Results: The intranasal pathologies included antrochoanal polyp (ACP) which was present in six patients (50.0%) followed by Inverted papilloma (IP) in three patients (25.0%) then dental cyst among two patients (16.7%) and the least one was maxillary cyst present in one patient (8.3%).
