Medical Management of Fungal Sinusitis
Medical therapy constitutes an useful adjunct to surgery in the management of fungal sinusitis. Drugs used include both antifungal and steroids in the form of systemic / topical sprays. In certain cases medical treatment administered prior to surgery reduces the size of polypi making it easily operable. Commonly medical management is used during the follow up period after surgery in order to reduce the rate of recurrence. The aim of this article is to review the currently published literature in this topic.
