Staging of Disease after Sinus Surgery Failure

  • 1031 Accesses

Abstract

• Despite many suggested methods of staging for chronic rhinosinusitis, there are intrinsic difficulties in finding the “perfect” solution.

• Most staging systems have relied on computed tomography (CT) scoring, endoscopic findings, symptom scores or combinations thereof and have concentrated on patients undergoing primary surgery rather than patients with recurrent symptoms awaiting revision surgery.

• Whilst a correlation can be shown between CT and endoscopic findings, the correlation between CT changes and symptoms is generally poor in either circumstance.

• The purpose of staging in inflammation/infection in contrast to malignancy may relate more to demonstration of the disease and as an inclusion criterion for clinical research than as a predictive tool.
