Histopathologic characteristics of chronic sinusitis with bronchial asthma

Abstract

No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of the presence of allergy, the degree of preoperative polyposis or the extent of preoperative disease. Basement membrane thickening, goblet cell hyperplasia and eosinophil infiltration were more prominent in the asthmatic compared to the non-asthmatic group (p <0.05).
