ALLERGIC FUNGAL SINUSITIS AMONG CANDIDATES FOR FUNCTIONAL ENDOSCOPIC SINUS SURGERY (FESS) IN SARI (IRAN)
Allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) has been clinicopathologically defined as a noninvasive form of fungal infection. This study was designed to distinguish AFS among patients with chronic sinusitis who failed to respond to repeated courses of antibiotics and were therefore candidates for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in Sari.
