Journal Title: Archives of Otolaryngology and Rhinology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: The primary aim of this prospective study was to evaluate headache severity before and after surgery in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without polyps (CRSsNP), chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps (CRSwNP), deviated nasal septum (DNS), and inferior turbinate hypertrophy (ITH). Our secondary aim was to compare the improvement of headache symptoms in these different patient groups.
