A Study of Association between Symptom Severity, Nasal Endoscopy and CT Scan Findings in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Patients
Sachin Nilakhe | Rahul Singh Chadha
Abstract: The term rhinosinusitis refers to a group of disorders characterized by inflammation of the ciliated respiratory mucosa of nose and paranasal sinuses. Many otorhinolaryngologists rely on paranasal sinus computed tomography and diagnostic nasal endoscopy to confirm and assess severity of disease, and aid in management decisions. Computed tomography scanning of the paranasal sinuses has become the gold standard in the evaluation and surgical planning for CRS. This study was a prospective observational study, conducted on 100 cases in E. N. T OPD of Bharati Vidyapeeth Medical College & Hospital, Sangli between November 2015 to May 2017 to study the association of severity of symptoms with paranasal sinus CT scan findings and diagnostic nasal endoscopy findings in patients of CRS. The CT scan scores vary with the symptom severity whereas the Nasal Endoscopy scores do not.
