Abstract

Management of nasal polyps (NP) is based on medical and surgical strategies. At present, medical therapy might be preferable, but it may not be long-lasting. In fact, NP patients have frequent relapses after medical and/or surgical treatment, and thus there is the need for adequate follow-up. In this regard, we previously proposed a clinical-cytological grading to calculate a prognostic index of relapse 4. Consequently, NP patients must be carefully assessed and followed over time, using appropriate exams.
