Abstract | Objective: To investigate whether direct steroid application via Mygind's position improved objective and subjective measures of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP). Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on patients seen by the senior author in a Rhinology Clinic of a tertiary academic center over a 2 year period. Patients whose only change in medical regimen was initiation of corticosteroid administration via Mygind's position were included for this analysis. The main subjective and objective outcome measures were Sino-nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) and endoscopy scores, respectively. Patient scores before and after the change in treatment were compared and analyzed using Student's Results: Twenty-two patients were identified for inclusion. There was a statistically significant decrease in overall nasal endoscopy scores for both the right ( Conclusion: The direct application of topical corticosteroids, specifically via Mygind's position, may improve both objective exam findings and clinical symptomatology in patients with CRSwNP compared to indirect application. Intolerance to the regimen can be observed. Level of evidence: 4-Case series (with or without comparison). |
