Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyposis: Emerging Data and New Insights for Treatment

Program Overview

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is associated with significant morbidity and negative impact on patient quality of life. Recent developments have uncovered numerous potential treatment approaches for CRSwNP by targeting type 2 inflammatory pathways; however, only patients expressing these immune phenomena will respond to these novel treatment approaches. This interactive infographic will cover the diagnosis, pathophysiology, and new/emerging treatment strategies for CRSwNP, including demonstrative case challenges, questions, audio narration, and interactive educational diagrams.
