ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the risk factors of fungal rhinosinusitis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The preoperative clinical data of 57 patients with a diagnosis of fungal rhinosinusitis confirmed pathologically using Gomori methenamine silver staining were analyzed statistically against the data of 57 age- and gender-matched control patients with chronic rhinosinusitis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with chronic rhinosinusitis, fungal rhinosinusitis was characterized by a significantly shorter mean disease course (37.31 months vs 130.84 months, t = 5.59, P = 0.000). The factors related to fungal rhinosinusitis included nasal mucus, purulent nasal discharge, unilateral/bilateral sinus lesion and calcified plaque in CT scan , with odds ratios of 0.17 (0.04-0.62), 0.35 (0.15-0.80), 41 (12.50-100.00) and 91 (24.01-344.95), respectively. Conditional logistic regression identified calcified plaque in CT scan as the high-risk factor of fungal rhinosinusitis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The presence of calcified plaque in CT scan indicates high risk of fungal rhinosinusitis and may serve as an important evidence for diagnosis of this disease.</p>
