Chronic Eosinophilic Rhinosinusitis Clinical Implications

92 Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the common health care problems, which have severe impact on lower airway disease, general health and medical expenses1. CT and endoscopy findings reveal more advanced disease presentation in patients with eosinophilic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps than in patients with non-eosinophilic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps2. The results of surgery for CRS are thought to be influenced by the presence or absence of eosinophils and nasal polyps. The likelihood of relapse is more common in patients with eosinophilic rhinosinusitis3.
