进入2000年代,发现了以成人发病,双侧鼻窦炎,嗅觉障碍,外周血中嗜酸性粒细胞高,支气管哮喘合并为主要征的慢性鼻窦炎,春名等人提出了嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎。2014年确立了诊断标准,2015年7月被厚生劳动省登记为不治之症。作为上呼吸道的慢性炎症的嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎和作为下气道的慢性炎症的支气管哮喘,被认为是one airway one disease这一病态共同存在的气道炎症疾病。患率高合并。作为病理之一,作为获得性免疫应答的2型辅助性T细胞(Th2),作为自然免疫应答的2型自然淋巴细胞(innate lymphoid cells type 2:ILC2)的IL-5的嗜酸性粒细胞诱导引起了气道炎症,但其全貌尚不明确。另外,众所周知,嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎合并的支气管哮喘多为阿司匹林哮喘,但其与阿司匹林不耐的关联性尚未明确。相对地,阿司匹林哮喘很早就发现合并了鼻蘑菇和嗅觉障碍,几乎所有被诊断为阿司匹林哮喘的患者都合并了嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎。阿司匹林哮喘患者的阿司匹林发作有时伴有意识障碍,导致死亡的例子也不少。因此,对于没有阿司匹林不耐的普通支气管哮喘患者,无论有无药物过敏史,都不应投与NSAIDs,这已成为目前整个医疗界的惯例。但是,相反,对于容易合并阿司匹林哮喘的嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎患者不使用NSAIDs,这一点并没有被广泛知晓。在具有鼻茸的病例中含有嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎的情况很多,而且,已知嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎中有很多阿斯皮林哮喘患者。因此,对于患有鼻蘑菇的病例,NSAIDs的处理必须慎重。此次经历了无NSAIDs过敏史,也未合并支气管哮喘的嗜酸性粒细胞性鼻窦炎患者的阿司匹林哮喘发作。如上所述,阿司匹林哮喘发作的支气管狭窄是严重的,有时还会导致死亡。考虑到患有鼻菇的患者中潜在存在对阿司匹林不耐受的患者,可以起到预防哮喘死亡的作用。在报告病例的同时,提醒注意NSAIDs的使用方法。

Background: Prevalence of sensitization to insects and its clinical and immunological features remains largely unclear in Japan. Patients and methods: The study includes 524 patients (316 from International University of Health and Welfare (IUHW) Mita Hospital in Tokyo and 208 from IUHW Hospital in Tochigi) who complained of nasal symptoms and underwent ImmunoCAP IgE tests. We compared the ratio of insect sensitization (moth, chironomid and cockroach) in Tokyo and Tochigi and investigated the clinical and immunological features of the patients, focusing particularly on those with sensitization to insects alone. Results: The ratio of sensitization to moth, chironomid and cockroach were 30.7%, 10.0% and 10.6% in Tokyo, and 26.4%, 10.6% and 12.5% in Tochigi, respectively. The geographical comparison showed no significant difference. Among the insect allergic patients, 95.1% were sensitized to the moth. In comparison to those insensitive to arthropods, the group of patients sensitized to insects was male dominant and indicated higher total IgE. The group of those sensitized only to insects was relatively older than that of those sensitive to not only insects but also other inhaled allergens. Conclusion: The study showed the high ratio of sensitization to the moth carried significance of the moth as an allergen in allergic rhinitis. The ratio of insect sensitization showed no significant different between urban and rural area. Patients sensitized to insects alone were dominated by elderly male with high total IgE.
