Most sinus infections are viral, and only a small proportion develops a secondary bacterial infection. Rhinoviruses, influenza viruses, and parainfluenza viruses are the most common causes of sinusitis. The most common bacteria isolated from pediatric and adult patients with community-acquired acute purulent sinusitis are Streptococcus pneumoniae ...

To the Editor. —Dr Mafee 1 has summarized the benefits of the computed tomographic (CT) scan in the evaluation of paranasal disease. He feels that this is the diagnostic procedure of choice for patients with complicated acute sinusitis, but implies that a plain-film sinus series is adequate for uncomplicated sinusitis.

Rhinitis and sinusitis are among the most common medical conditions and are frequently associated. In Western societies an estimated 10% to 25% of the population have allergic rhinitis, with 30 to 60 million persons being affected annually in the United States.

We report a case of sinusitis caused by mixed free-living amoebae, Acanthamoeba and Naegleria, in an immunocompetent host; this has not been documented before. Free-living amoebae should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pathogens that cause sinusitis with or without central nervous system involvement, especially when bacteria or fungi are

Recent discoveries make it necessary to reevaluate many of the traditional assumptions concerning sinusitis. Within the past 10 years, investigators have detailed the pathophysiology of sinusitis. Occlusion of the sinus ostia initiates the sinusitis cycle; untreated, this leads to chronic sinusitis. Anatomic abnormalities also predispose the patient to

There is much to be learned about sinusitis in children. The appropriate choice and timing of diagnostic tests, correct type and duration of antibiotic treatment, role of allergy management and adjuvant drugs, and indications for and limits of endoscopic sinus surgery remain to be defined.

Acute sinusitis is defined pathologically, by transient inflammation of the mucosal lining of the paranasal sinuses lasting less than 4 weeks. Clinically, it is characterised by nasal congestion, rhinorrhoea, facial pain, hyposmia, sneezing, and, if more severe, additional malaise and fever.
