lfactory dysfunction in eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) is poorly understood.
compare olfactory mucosal injury due to eosinophil infiltration in ECRS with postoperative olfactory function.
Seventeen ECRS patients (ECRS group) and 18 bilateral rhinosinusitis (non-ECRS group) patients were compared.
At 3 and 12 months post-endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), all patients were evaluated for subjective symptoms (nasal obstruction, nasal discharge and olfactory dysfunction), endoscopic nasal findings, CT score and T&T olfactometer recognition threshold test.
The eosinophil count, OMP-positive cells and epithelial erosion in olfactory mucosa collected during ESS were compared with the postoperative olfactory function.
