Presentation
Among these subjects, sinusal-mucosal thickening was present in 75% (n = 44), and concha hypertrophy was present in 51% (n = 30). Adenoid hypertrophy was present in 20% (n = 12), and septum deviation was present in 17% (n = 10). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
We give a broad overview of the workup of chronic rhinosinusitis, focusing on immune deficiency, an often overlooked but clinically important aspect of the sinusitis workup. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that intranasal corticosteroid treatment produces additional relief in the treatment of acute sinusitis with oral antibiotics. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of the 2 groups. Results: In this study, eczema herpeticum occurred in 2.7% of the AD patients. [kiss.kstudy.com]
Etiology
The viral etiology of the common cold (verified in 67% of the episodes) was similar in both groups. Pathogenic bacteria were isolated from the middle meatus in 24% (6) of the control patients and only 9% (2) of the sinusitis-prone patients (P=.15). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Even though the exact etiology is unknown, genetic factor is thought to be influential because it is often diagnosed in siblings. [kjorl.org]

Prevention
Problems such as recognition of the disorder and adequate treatment are complicated by the lack of universal definition, absence of preventive measures, and dearth of clear end-point definitions for successful therapy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
