Abstract
Ear, Nose and Throat manifestations have been frequently observed in patients with chronic renal failure. Many factors viz. ototoxic drugs, associated conditions of renal failure such as electrolyte imbalance, alteration in blood urea etc. have been implicated for these manifestations. The present study has been conducted to evaluate ear, nose and throat manifestations in thirty pediatric patients (age group 4-16 year) of chronic renal failure undergoing peritoneal dialysis. Probable patho-physiology and treatment of ENT manifestations has been discussed. The remarkable findings in all these cases were the high blood urea level. Most of these manifestations were markedly improved by correction of the renal functions and ideal therapeutic measures.
