Aim of the study is to prospectively examine the Bacteriology of Chronic Rhinosinusitis at MNR Medical College & Hospital, Sangareddy, and to evaluate the antibiotic sensitivity pattern, and to discuss an empirical basis for the initial choice of the appropriate antibiotic. 217 suspected patients were included in the study. The relevant clinical details of the patients including the co-morbidities in the medical records were examined. Samples like nasal swabs collected during nasal endoscopy under sterile conditions, sinus washings, allergic mucin, tissue biopsy from polyps and tissue biopsy taken from sinus mucosa during nasal surgery, were processed and examined by Microbiology culture using recommended techniques. | Bacteriological profile of chronic rhino sinusitis
