Abstract
ABSTRACT There has been an increasing awareness of the inter-relationship between inflammatory disease of the upper and lower airway. Both epidemiological and physiological data suggest that the respiratory tract, from the middle ear mucosa, through the nose and sinuses, and into the pulmonary tree behave as an integerated unit. Recent progress in understanding the biology of airway disease has identified that systemic inflammatory responses play a critical and integerating role in these diseases. The role of sinus surgery in the management of asthma patients has been a matter of debate for many years. We are presenting a well-designed prospective, controlled study in 50 patients with asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyposis who were submitted to either functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) or medical therapy.
