    Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and predictors of postoperative recurrence in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP).Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 53 SNIP patients treated at Zhengzhou University Hospital (2019–2023) was conducted. Patients were stratified into primary (n=34) and recurrent (n=19) cohorts. Clinical variables were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression.Results: Smoking (OR=10.08, 95% CI=1.32–77.15), prior surgery (OR=17.26, 95% CI=2.69–110.76), and ipsilateral involvement (OR=7.79, 95% CI=1.05–57.99) emerged as independent recurrence predictors (P<0.05). Krouse staging (T3 vs. T1–T2) showed no significant association (P=0.198).Conclusion: Comprehensive evaluation of smoking history, surgical history, and lesion laterality is critical for recurrence risk stratification in SNIP management.
