Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of pulmicort respulas immerse with nasopore as nasal packing after nasal endoscopic surgery on patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Method:This single-blind, randomized study recruit 33 patients diagnosed as chronic rhinosinusitis with polyposis. All of them underwent bilateral endoscopic sinus surgery and randomized to receive pulmicort respulas immersed nasopore in one nasal cavity and saline immersed nasopore contralaterally. Both groups were followed up at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 weeks after operation. Subjective (VAS score) and objective (Lund-Kennedy score) scores are collected at each time point from both sides of nasal cavity. Result:There are 30 enrolled patients in the study completed the 24-week trial. Both the subjective and objective scores of two groups shows a significant reduction after the ESS operation. The VAS score of the two groups remains roughly unchanged during week 2 to week 24. A statistically significant difference of the Lund-Kennedy score can be detected between the groups from week 2 to week 24. Though the serum cortisol reduced (5.97±4.10) mmol/L vs (12.48±4.33) mmol/L after the surgery, neither group shows any clinical symptoms related with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression. Conclusion:This study demonstrated a significant improvement in postoperative healing in nasal cavities receiving pulmicort respulas immersed nasopore as nasal packing following ESS. This method of using budesonide is generally safe for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyposis.
