Polypoid sinus degeneration - what does this mean
Polypoid sinus degeneration is a condition where the walls of the sinuses become thickened and form polyp-like growths. it is caused by an accumulation of inflammatory cells, fluid, and debris in the sinus cavities. it can be caused by allergies, infections, or other inflammatory conditions. symptoms can include nasal congestion, sinus pressure, and facial pain. treatment may include medications, surgery, or a combination of both.
What happens during the disease - polypoid sinus degeneration
Polypoid sinus degeneration is caused by an accumulation of inflammatory cells in the sinus mucosa, which leads to a thickening of the mucosa and the formation of polyps. this increases the risk of infection and obstruction of the sinus, leading to chronic inflammation and a progressive destruction of the sinus tissues. this can lead to a breakdown of the sinus mucosa and the formation of cysts, which can lead to further complications such as nasal obstruction, chronic sinusitis, and recurrent infections.
