Allergic Fungal Sinusitis

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Allergic fungal sinusitis is a distinct phenotype of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyposis that was first described in the 1980s. Since its description AFS has garnered considerable interest because of its tendency to recur and be difficult to control, patients may suffer facial deformity or orbital complications, and the precise pathophysiology of the condition remains elusive.
