Antibody deficiency in chronic rhinosinusitis: Epidemiology and burden of illness
BACKGROUND A subset of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has refractory disease. The risk factors for refractory CRS include atopy, a disrupted mucociliary transport system, medical conditions affecting the sinonasal tract mucosa, and immunodeficiency. METHODS We review four primary immunodeficiencies reported in individuals with CRS: common variable immune deficiency (CVID), selecti...
متن کاملRefractory Chronic Rhinosinusitis: Etiology & Management
The true incidenceof RCRS is unknown. It is estimated that at least 10 % of patients with CRS continue to be symptomatic after appropriate endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) with long term follow up. This 10% failure rate translates into 30,000 patients yearlyundergoing ESS with poor postoperative outcome.Because these numbers are cumulative over years, approximately450,000 cases in the United Stat...

متن کاملThe Prevalence of Allergic Rhinitis in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a multifactorial disease. Allergies are considered a predisposing factor to CRS; however, this remains controversial. The objective of this research was to investigate the prevalence of co-morbidities and allergic reaction, and to specify the most common allergens in patients with confirmed CRS. Materials and Methods: One hundred patients with sig...
