Assessment of health-related quality of life and olfactory loss in relation to nasal polyp recurrence after endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis: a real life-study
A low smell test result before surgery may serve as an early indicator of recalcitrant NPs, whereas preoperative scores from HrQoL questionnaires may not be a good predictor. We confirm a significant role for blood eosinophils in refractory CRSwNP, while FeNO may not predict rapid NP recurrence.
