“…Both studies showed significant differences between healthy subjects and patients with NP in all the SF-36 domains, except for physical functioning in Alobid et al 12 Moreover, they also found that patients with NP had lower scores in the mental score than in the physical score, which suggests that NP has a greater impact on mental health than on physical health. 11 NP also has an impact on other aspects of patients' lives and has been found to be associated with erectile dysfunction. 13 In 2007, the updated consensus document EP 3 OS was published.…”

To study clinico-pathological profile of sinonasal masses (SNM). This is a retrospective analytical review of 92 patients of SNM who presented to Department of ENT, S.S. Medical college & Associated Hospital, Rewa from January 2008 to August 2012. Their biodata, clinical profile and histolopathological diagnosis were analyzed. The study design was retrospective done in tertiary referral hospital setting. In the present study total 92 patients with age ranging from 7 to [70 years were analysed. The overall M:F ratio was 1.35:1. Most of the patients (35.86 %) belong to 11-20 year age group. The main presenting symptoms were nasal blockage (94 %) and rhinorrhoea (90 %). About 48.9 % cases showed mass on left side, 34.78 % on right side and 16.3 % bilateral. Maximum cases 42.39 % were reported to be antrochoanal polyp followed by ethmoidal polyp and angiomatous polyp. About 6.52 % cases were histopathologically reported to be malignant. This article gives an insight into prevalence of SNM in this region of North India thus advocating early recognition, proper diagnosis and treatment of SNM.

“…Because critical questions about its cause, pathophysiology, and optimal treatment remain unanswered, CRS still generates significant healthcare costs and affects the quality of life (QoL). Although CRS is not a lifethreatening disease, it can significantly decrease patientÕs QoL (8)(9)(10). Quality of life is a very important outcome in the evaluation of CRS severity and its measurements reflect the effect that symptoms and disease have on the patientÕs daily life (11).…”

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) including nasal polyps is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal and paranasal sinus mucosa that, despite differing hypotheses of its cause, remains poorly understood. Primary symptoms are nasal blockage, loss of smell, rhinorrhea, and facial pain or pressure. Chronic rhinosinusitis causes significant physical symptoms, has a negative impact on quality of life (QoL), and can substantially impair daily functioning. A global evaluation of patients must include, together with nasal symptoms, nasal endoscopy, and CT scan, the measurement of QoL. To assess QoL in CRS, specific and generic questionnaires may be used. Chronic rhinosinusitis has a considerable impact on a patient’s QoL but comorbidities, such as asthma and atopy, have an accumulative negative effect. Both medical and surgical treatments lead to a similar improvement on the QoL of CRS and nasal polyp patients.
