[Clinical analysis of chronic rhinosinusitis in the different age group patients]

Objective:To investigate the clinical materials of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in the different age group patients and explore its clinical characteristics and prognosis.Method:A retrospective analysis was carried out in 395 CRS patients with surgical treatment in our hospital in the past three years. They were divided into the young group (18 to 39 years old ), the middle-aged group (40 to 59 years old ), and the old group (over 60 years old). The clinical symptoms, accompanying diseases and prognosis in CRS patients were analyzed.Result:Among the presenting symptoms,facial pain and rhinorrhea were most common in the young group (P< 0.05), while dysosmia was most common in the old group (P< 0.05). Allergy was more prevalent in the young group and the middle-aged group than the old group (P< 0.05). CRS without polyposis was the most common diagnosis in the young group and CRS with polyposis was the more common diagnosis in the middle-aged group and the old group (P< 0.05). Patients in the young group got higher rate of improvement in olfactory function while patients in the old group got higher rate of improvement in rhinorrhea following FESS (P< 0.05).Conclusion:CRS in different age groups had different clinical features and prognosis. We can improve the personalized treatment program to this disease through the classification and grading treatment.
