Sinonasal Risk Factors for Occurrence of Unilateral Versus Bilateral Allergic Fungal Rhinosinusitis

This study aims to assess Sinonasal risk factors for occurrence of unilateral versus bilateral allergic fungal rhino sinusitis regarding::

  1. anatomical variations and correlate radiological finding with intraoperative finding.
  2. other associated factors like demographic ,environmental, immunological and climatic risk factors .

Detailed Description

Introduction Allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) is a subtype of CRS with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) that is characterized by eosinophilic mucin within expanded sinus cavities and immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated type 1 hypersensitivity to fungal elements. This noninvasive disease process typically affects immunocompetent, younger patients in geographic regions with warm temperatures and high humidity, which facilitate fungal proliferation.

AFRS has a worldwide distribution pattern with varying prevalence. AFRS is presented in variable rates in different climatic, socioeconomic, and geographic factors. The disease prevalence showed predilection toward climatic factors
