Long-term postoperative azithromycin in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis: A randomized clinical trial.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Chronic rhinitis impacts 60 million Americans and is associated with significant costs for patients. Although medical treatments are first line, some patients require surgical intervention such as vidian or posterial nasal neurectomy. Previous reviews have investigated the role of surgical management in chro...
