Anaphylaxis in a Patient Undergoing FESS for Nasal Polyposis: Revisting Samter’s Triad

Patients with nasal polyposis frequently have associated bronchial asthma and hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. When the three conditions co-exist, it is referred to as the Samter’s triad. Patients with Samter’s triad are an important subset of those with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD). W...
