Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is highly prevalent and has been shown to produce a significant burden to society and healthcare. Despite this, there is much that is not known about its optimum treatment. Although there are a handful of randomized trials investigating the role of medical treatments, such as antibiotics and corticosteroids, much remains unknown about formulations, dosings, treatment durations, and suitable CRS endotypes for their use.
The optimum surgical management of CRS is even less well understood with such fundamental questions as when to provide limited versus more extensive surgery still debated. Practices vary with regard to the peri-operative use of analgesia and other medications, debridements, and topical treatments, with little evidence to guide clinicians.
For this Special Issue we welcome submissions, both original research and review articles, that address any aspects of how to optimise the care of CRS patients.
Dr. Andrew J. Wood
