Abstract

|
|
|
There is no universally accepted regimen for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). However, the maximal medical treatment has shown that it can reduce the surgical treatment rate for CRS. The therapeutic goals of systemic medical management in CRS include reduction of the mucosal inflammation, eradicating of infecting pathogens, and restoring the mucociliary function and mucosal aeration. Medical treatment requires the combination of oral and topical managements. Systemic and topical antibiotics, oral and topical steroids, nasal lavage have been used medical treatment.
