Functional Outcomes of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study Using the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-16 Questionnaire
Modified Arabic Sinonasal Outcome Test scores were significantly improved after FESS. Therefore, primary treatment with FESS should be considered for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. However, further studies are recommended to investigate the long-term benefits of FESS and the impact of comorbidities, such as asthma and allergic rhinitis, on outcomes.
