Chronic rhinosinusitis

Chronic rhinosinusitis is a highly prevalent inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavities, which affects 5–12% of the general population, is associated with significant medical resource consumption, and can have a profound impact on quality of life. My research is focused on the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with a goal of improving quality of life for patients with this disease.
