Structured histopathology for endotyping and planning rational treatment in chronic rhinosinusitis

摘要

In chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), endotyping, being based on the pathogenic mechanism, provides a precise picture appropriate for use in clinical practice. Structured histopathological examination of CRS is considered a necessary step in efforts to establish its pathogenesis and improve our endotyping capabilities. Herein we discuss the associations between histopathology and clinical characteristics of CRS patients to assist medical and surgical treatment choices.
