Some correlations have been proposed between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and type and severity of nasal septal deviation. This study sought to compare the type and severity of nasal septal deviation between CRS patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and asymptomatic controls using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
This prospective case-control study evaluated 49 CRS patients who did not respond to pharmaceutical therapy and were candidates for FESS and 49 asymptomatic controls. All participants underwent CBCT and were inspected for septal deviation type and severity. Data were analyzed by the independent -test and chi-square test.
The study population comprised of 58.25% males and 41.8% females, with a mean age of 33.74 ± 11.78 years. Significant correlations were noted between the presence of CRS and severity of septal deviation (=0.007). Type of septal deviation had no significant correlation with the presence of CRS (=0.443).
Patients with CRS have significantly more severe nasal septal deviation. However, type of septal deviation is not correlated with CRS.
已有人提出慢性鼻 - 鼻窦炎(CRS)与鼻中隔偏曲的类型及严重程度之间存在一些关联。本研究旨在使用锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)比较接受功能性鼻内镜鼻窦手术(FESS)的CRS患者与无症状对照者之间鼻中隔偏曲的类型及严重程度。
这项前瞻性病例对照研究评估了49例对药物治疗无反应且适合接受FESS的CRS患者以及49例无症状对照者。所有参与者均接受了CBCT检查,并对鼻中隔偏曲的类型和严重程度进行了检查。数据采用独立样本t检验和卡方检验进行分析。
研究人群中男性占58.25%,女性占41.8%,平均年龄为33.74 ± 11.78岁。CRS的存在与鼻中隔偏曲的严重程度之间存在显著相关性(P = 0.007)。鼻中隔偏曲的类型与CRS的存在无显著相关性(P = 0.443)。
CRS患者的鼻中隔偏曲明显更严重。然而,鼻中隔偏曲的类型与CRS无关。
