This study aimed to study whether the use of preoperative steroids for surgical field preparation actually impacted our diagnosis of eosinophilic vs non-eosinophilic CRS contemplating eosinophils > 10/HPF as the cutoff in accordance with the EPOS2020 guidelines and whether any pathological parameter could be noted to predict recurrence.
