Abstract：This paper mainly discusses how to pay attention to the standardized diagnosis and treatment of pediatric upper airway inflammatory diseases.It emphasizes the unique characteristics of these diseases in children,highlighting that the upper airway has distinctive anatomical structure with physiologicaland pathological continuity and consistency.These diseases often display individual characteristics while being closely interconnected,which are referred to as comorbid diseases.Examples include the coexistence of allergic rhinitis with chronic rhinosinusitis,and the concurrent presence of allergic rhinitis,chronic rhinosinusitis,and adenoid hypertrophy.This paper introduces the clinical diagnosis of these comorbidities,including symptom-based diagnosis,laboratory diagnosis,and endoscopic and imaging diagnosis.Furthermore,it summarizes the treatment options for these comorbidities,including standardized pharmacological conservative therapy and minimally invasive surgical treatment.
