Abstract

In patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps who have mild symptoms, intranasal glucocorticoids and saline irrigation are recommended. For more severe symptoms, short-term courses of systemic glucocorticoids may be used; if glucocorticoids are ineffective, surgery to remove polyps can be considered.
