Quality of life outcomes of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after functional endoscopic sinus surgery, prospective cohort study

ConclusionsOutcomes from this study suggest that patients with U CRSsNP having a preoperative SNOT-22 scores between 10 and 19, and patients with B CRSsNP having a preoperative SNOT-22 scores between 10-19 or 20-29 had no chance of achieving an MCID improvement after FESS. Also, preoperative rhinologic symptoms and preoperative psychological dysfunction domains of SNOT-22 are helpful tools to predict improvement after FESS unlike the unilateral character of CRS.
