“…Moreover, (Ismail et al, (2022) and Karuthedath et al (2014) found that the PFT was improved significantly following endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic allergic rhinosinusitis. Additionally, Karaman et al (2011) observed significant improvement in all spirometry parameters following septoplasty except FEV1. In this regard we can expect that surgery for nasal polyps could improve lower airways functions which is documented by Siam etal.…”

Background: Coexistence of bronchial asthma and allergic nasal polyposis make both disorders more difficult to control with more exacerbation and more eosinophilic inflammation. Aim: to assess the coexistence of subclinical bronchial asthma in patients with allergic nasal polyp refractory to medical therapy and to identify those at risk of developing asthma. Subjects and methods: A case-control study was conducted on 60 allergic nasal polyp patients and 60 healthy subjects. All of them were assessed by peripheral eosinophils%, allergic rhinitis score (SFAR), NOSE-score, endoscopic-sinus examination, sinus computed tomography using Lund and Mackey scoring-system, asthma screening questionnaire (ASQ), spirometric-indices, and histopathological examination of endoscopically removed polyps. Results: Patients with allergic nasal polyps had significantly lower spirometric-indices than controls. Subclinical asthma was significantly more common in-patient group than controls (61.7% vs. 10%), it was of mild and moderate severity (83.8% and 16.2%). Allergic nasal polyp patients with coexistence of asthma had significantly higher peripheral eosinophils %, SFAR-score, NOSE-score, Lund and Mackey CT-score, and ASQ score (10, 39.7, 40.5, 40, and 40.1) than patients without asthma (15.2, 15.7, 15.2 and14.1). Moreover, they had significantly common eosinophilic-predominate pathological subtypes (81.1%).
