Objective: Evaluate computed tomography (CT) signs that predict need for revision endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).
Methods: CRS patients (n = 48) underwent routine sinus CT scans and baseline ESS in 2006-2011. Lund-Mackay (LM) scores and 43 other CT signs were analysed blinded from both sides. Patients filled in a questionnaire during the day of CT scanning. Follow-up data were collected from hospital records until January 2018. Associations were analysed by Fisher's exact, Mann Whitney U, Kaplan-Meier method with logrank test and Cox's proportional hazard model.
Results: Total LM score was not significantly associated with the need for revision ESS. The best predictive model was a sum of CT signs of non-detectable anatomy of inferior/middle turbinates, obstructed frontal recess, and previous sinus surgery. Using these CT findings, we formed a Radiological Score (RS) (min-max, 0-3 points). Having at least one RS point was significantly associated with the need for revision ESS during the average follow-up of 10.7 years (p = 0.008, Logrank test).
Conclusion: We identified a radiologic score that was able to predict the need for revision ESS, which is probably useful in predicting CRS outcomes.

Purpose: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) often requires endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for symptom control. However, there is currently a high reported revision rate. The introduction of biologics offers an alternative treatment, but patient criteria are ambiguous, particularly regarding the definition of "previous ESS.

Objective: This review aims to elucidate the role of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) on the outcomes of pediatric patients with sinogenic intracranial infections.
Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane library were searched for articles that described the outcomes in pediatric patients who had intracranial complications of acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) and underwent ESS with or without open neurosurgical approaches (ONA) or external sinus approaches (ESA). Primary outcomes of interest include mortality, revision surgery, length of stay and neurological sequelae.

Article Synopsis
- Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) leads to long-lasting inflammation in the nasal area and often requires endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) when treatments fail, with recurrence rates between 5% and 60%.
- A study examined 130 patients who had ESS, finding a 5-year recurrence rate of 35.4% and 17.7% needing revision surgery, while identifying several factors linked to poor outcomes.
- Key predictors for recurrence included having asthma, frontal sinus involvement, high Lund-Mackay and Endoscopic Nasal Polyps Scores, and elevated eosinophilia in blood tests, indicating more complicated cases of CRSwNP.

Background: Despite growing concern regarding over-prescription of narcotic pain medication following ambulatory surgery, little is known about the analgesic prescribing practices following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) in obese patients in comparison to non-obese patients.
Objective: To compare the rates of opioid versus non-opioid prescriptions, the need for steroids, and post-operative adverse events between obese and non-obese adult patients undergoing ESS.
Methods: Using TriNetX Live database, we identified all patients aged ≥18 years who underwent ESS (n = 1303) between 2014 and 2022 across several healthcare institutions across the state of Tennessee.

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is an inflammatory condition which may have a significant impact on quality of life. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is usually indicated for patients' refractory to maximal medical treatment and presents high recurrence and revision surgery rates. The aims of this study are to evaluate ESS outcome in CRSwNP management and to assess independent predictive factors for recurrence.
