Biologics Adoption in CRSwNP and the Associated Decline in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Longitudinal Claims Database Study

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biologic treatments were introduced for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) in 2019. Treatment algorithms for medically refractory CRSwNP remain open, with patients choosing among surgery, biologics, or both. Real‐world utilization of surgery and biologics remains incompletely characterized.
