Abstract
Among ENT organ diseases in patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic rhinosinusitis is leading. The respiratory epithelium lining the surface of the upper and lower respiratory tract has the same structure. And as a result, in patients with cystic fibrosis, along with the bronchial tree, the upper respiratory tract is involved in the inflammatory process, while chronic rhinosinusitis develops. Impaired drainage leads to stagnation of infected thick mucus. Timely examination and treatment of upper respiratory pathology in patients with cystic fibrosis is needed. In surgical treatment, the method of choice is extended FESS. Observation by an ENT physician and conservative treatment of polypose rhinosinusitis should be carried out throughout the life of a patient with cystic fibrosis.

Among ENT organ diseases in patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic rhinosinusitis is leading. Последствия мутации гена муковисцидоза представляют собой патологические изменения, возникающие в слизистой оболочке полости носа и околоносовых пазух и приводящие к выключению функции мукоцилиарного транспорта. Достижения современной медицины в последние десятилетия значительно увеличили ожидаемую продолжительность жизни у больных муковисцидозом, и на этом фоне произошло усиление внимания к диагностике и лечению заболеваний полости носа и околоносовых пазух у данной группы пациентов [2].
