Article Synopsis
- Adult cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are increasingly referred for endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) to manage chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), prompting a study on the anatomical differences and postoperative risks associated with CF.
- A retrospective analysis compared CT scans of 103 CF patients to 100 non-CF patients and assessed surgical outcomes for both groups after ESS.
- The study found that CF patients had smaller sinuses but did not face a higher risk of surgical complications despite undergoing more aggressive procedures, suggesting that anatomical factors may play a role in their outcomes.
