The objective was to determine whether the polyp subtypes observed in cystic fibrosis (CF)–related sinusitis were similar to those observed in non–CF-related sinusitis. Polyp and mucus samples were collected from CF patients who presented for sinus , Abstract. Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common monogenic disease, characterized by clinically notable polymorphism. Respiratory disease is the main factor that influences the disease outcome and prognosis of the patient with CF, bacterial infections being responsible for severe exacerbations and rhinosinusitis a difficult complication, besides lung disease., Aanaes K, von Buchwald C, Hjuler T, Skov M, Alanin M, Johansen HK.

The aims of, Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that results in deranged ion transport and affects multiple organ systems, including the upper and lower respiratory tracts. People with CF (PwCF) often develop chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with or without nasal polyposis. CRS can significantly decrease quality of life for PwCF and can lead to more frequent pulmonary exacerbations. The .
