Abstract:
:Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) may have a role in upper airway disease such as chronic sinusitis and pharyngolaryngitis. Methods of assessment of reflux, although never absolute, are useful in selecting GER as a component in the induction of upper respiratory disease. Patients with intractable sinusitis and otitis have been found to respond to anti-reflux therapy as noted in the cases of this article.
