Abstract:
Chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS)is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sinus mucosa,with up to 83%of CRS patients suffering from olfactory dysfunction(OD),which seriously affects the life quality of patients.However,due to the difficulty in obtaining tissue from the olfactory epithelium,the mechanisms of inflammatory OD remain poorly understood.Therefore,a deeper understanding of the mechanism of OD oc-curence in CRS patients is crucial for improving their quality of life and prognosis.This article focused on the mechanisms underlying the development and progression of CRS-related OD,as well as current clinical inter-ventions.
