    Author: Wu AW, Shapiro NL, Bhattacharyya N.
    Journal: Immunol Allergy Clin North Am; 2009 Nov; 29(4):705-17. PubMed ID: 19879445.
    Abstract:
    Pediatric chronic rhinosinusitis, a common problem, has been found to have a severe impact on the quality of life. As in the case with adult chronic rhinosinusitis, pediatric chronic rhinosinusitis is difficult to treat, with resultant frequent recurrences and failures. Controversy has existed in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis in children, mirroring the controversy over the exact etiology of this disorder. Chronic rhinosinusitis may indeed be a group of diseases with similar presenting features. This article attempts to delineate treatment options that are both safe and effective for pediatric chronic rhinosinusitis.
