IMMUNOTHERAPY EFFICIENCY IN RHINOSINUSITIS PATIENTS
Latent rhinosinusitis proceeds without facial pain symptoms. Immune deficiency plays a leading role in pathogenesis of the disease latency. Substance P seems to be a universal mediator of painful irritation and inflammation. The objective of our study was to determine effectiveness of therapies in p...

Latent rhinosinusitis proceeds without facial pain symptoms. Immune deficiency plays a leading role in pathogenesis of the disease latency.
