摘要
OBJECTIVE: The cause of pediatric chronic sinusitis is multifactorial, but nasal edema appears to be the initial pathologic step. The objective of this study is to evaluate gastronasal reflux as a possible cause of pediatric sinusitis. METHODS: Thirty children with chronic sinusitis were believed to be appropriate candidates for functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Children were evaluated retrospectively for their response to reflux therapy with regard to their sinus symptoms and avoidance of sinus surgery. RESULTS: Two of the 30 children were eventually excluded because they were taken to surgery for the specific purpose of contact point release. Chart review at 24-month follow-up indicated that 25 of the 28 children (89%) avoided sinus surgery. CONCLUSION: After reflux treatment, the number of children requiring sinus surgery was dramatically reduced. The results of this preliminary pediatric study indicate that gastronasal reflux should be evaluated and treated before sinus surgical intervention.
