Abstract
Objective: To determine the impact of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) on chronic rhinosinusitis with asthma (CRSwA) patients' clinical control and quality of life.
Study design: A randomized controlled trial involving 150 CRSwA patients, equally divided into surgical and control groups.
Setting: Participants were matched for age, gender, illness duration, and computed tomography (CT) grading of the sinuses.
Methods: Random allocation was conducted using a computer-generated table.
Results: The surgical group exhibited significant symptom score improvements across all metrics (P < .001). Lung function parameters showed substantial gains, with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and FEV1/FVC ratios significantly higher than the control group (P < .001). Quality of life scores, measured by RQLQ and AQLQ, improved significantly in the surgical group (P < .001). At 6 months, correlations between lung function and CT grading of the sinuses were evident, with negative and positive correlations, respectively (P < .05). Inflammatory markers and medication usage were notably reduced (P < .001, P < .05), with low adverse event rates (1%).
Conclusion: ESS is effective in enhancing clinical outcomes and quality of life for CRSwA patients, reducing inflammation and medication needs, thus supporting its use as a beneficial treatment.
