Abstract:
:Chronic rhinosinusitis is a complex disease process, one that is characterized by much more than just infection. Until its pathophysiology is understood fully, truly definitive therapy may remain elusive. As this underlying inflammatory process begins to unravel, however, new avenues of therapy will begin to emerge. This article discusses some of these new therapies and provides some clues as to where future avenues may go.
