Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is characterized by chronic inflammation of the sinonasal mucosa, affects over 12% of the US population, and costs over $20 billion annually. CRS can be divided into 2 major phenotypes based on whether nasal polyps are present (chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps [CRSwNP]) or absent (chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps). This grand rounds review will discuss the clinical approach to patients with CRSwNP, including typical presentations, workup, and currently available treatment options. Tools that physicians can use to assess subjective sinonasal symptoms, as well as objective measures of disease, will be reviewed. Additional focus will be on recognizing clinical comorbidities commonly associated with CRSwNP, including asthma, bronchiectasis, allergic rhinitis, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-exacerbated respiratory disease. Clinical outcomes can be improved by providing a comprehensive approach to evaluating (and managing) patients with CRSwNP.
期刊介绍:
JACI: In Practice is an official publication of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI). It is a companion title to The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, and it aims to provide timely clinical papers, case reports, and management recommendations to clinical allergists and other physicians dealing with allergic and immunologic diseases in their practice. The mission of JACI: In Practice is to offer valid and impactful information that supports evidence-based clinical decisions in the diagnosis and management of asthma, allergies, immunologic conditions, and related diseases.
This journal publishes articles on various conditions treated by allergist-immunologists, including food allergy, respiratory disorders (such as asthma, rhinitis, nasal polyps, sinusitis, cough, ABPA, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis), drug allergy, insect sting allergy, anaphylaxis, dermatologic disorders (such as atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, urticaria, angioedema, and HAE), immunodeficiency, autoinflammatory syndromes, eosinophilic disorders, and mast cell disorders.
The focus of the journal is on providing cutting-edge clinical information that practitioners can use in their everyday practice or to acquire new knowledge and skills for the benefit of their patients. However, mechanistic or translational studies without immediate or near future clinical relevance, as well as animal studies, are not within the scope of the journal.
