are associated with slightly elevated AFRs; class ii, in which constitutional symptoms are also present, with fever and marked elevation of the AFRs; and class iii, in which the cutaneous form progresses to systemic forms of the disease. We classified our patient in the second subgroup. In cutaneous PAN, patients with marked elevation of AFRs are more likely to present inflammatory plaques and ...
We present 32- and 38-year-old males with Schizophyllum commune-induced allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). S. commune-induced AFRS was diagnosed by clinical and radiographic findings, positive specific IgE antibodies against S. commune as measured by the ImmunoCAP system, and sequencing analysis of the fungus. Our two cases with S. commune-induced AFRS for the first time showed evidence for...
OBJECTIVES Conventional management of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) after surgery consists of the use of steroids to immunomodulate the body's response to fungi. However, there are many side effects to prolonged steroid use, and some patients are unresponsive to standard treatment. The role of systemic antifungal drugs in AFRS is still largely unknown. This was a pilot study to evaluate...
Patients with HIV/AIDS can present with multiple types of fungal rhinosinusitis, fungal balls, granulomatous invasive fungal rhinosinusitis, acute or chronic invasive fungal rhinosinusitis, or allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). Given the variable spectrum of immune status and susceptibility to severe infection from opportunistic pathogens it is extremely important that clinicians distinguis...
PURPOSE 1. To assess the efficacy of omalizumab therapy in improving sinonasal outcomes in refractory allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) patients with moderate or severe asthma. 2. To determine if omalizumab therapy reduces the usage of corticosteroids or antifungal therapy in AFRS patients METHOD DESIGN The clinical charts of patients with AFRS with moderate or severe asthma who receiv...
BACKGROUND Given the differences in pathophysiology between allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) and other chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) subgroups, it remains unclear about whether these patients respond differently to a combination of surgical and medical treatments. OBJECTIVE To evaluate differences in quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes for a cohort of patients who underwent endoscopic sinus su...
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the surgical revision rate in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in the UK CRS Epidemiology Study (CRES). Previous evidence from National Sinonasal Audit showed that 1459 patients with CRS demonstrated a surgical revision rate 19.1% at 5 years, with highest rates seen in those with polyps (20.6%). SETTING Thirty secondary care centre...
BACKGROUND Some patients continue to suffer from symptoms of sinusitis after maximal topical medical and surgical treatment for allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). Manuka honey has well-documented antimicrobial and antifungal properties and is currently being used by physicians across the world for a wide variety of medical problems. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the effectivenes...
Background Essential tremor (ET) is among the most common neurological diseases and it often runs in families. How knowledgeable ET patients and their families are about their disease has been the subject of surprisingly little scholarship. Methods To fill this gap in knowledge, we administered a comprehensive 32-item survey (i.e., questions about etiology, pathophysiology, symptoms and signs...
Fungal Rhinosinusitis (FRS) is a well known entity, but only in more recent times have the types of FRS been more fully defined. In this study, we evaluate the diagnosis of FRS in a single medical center. Cases were divided into 2 main categories, non-invasive and invasive. Non-invasive FRS included fungus ball (FB) and allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). Invasive FRS included acute invasive...
