Little is known regarding the epidemiology of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in racial and ethnic minorities in the United States(US). Comprehensively evaluate the current prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) across various treatment settings in order to identify possible disparities in health care access and utilization between racial and ethnic populations. The NHIS, NAMCS, and NHAMCS database registries were extracted to identify the national prevalence of CRS in race/ethnic populations and resource utilization in ambulatory care settings. Systematic literature review identified studies reporting treatment outcomes in minority patients electing endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS). Data was supplemented using a multi-institutional cohort of patients undergoing surgical treatment. National survey data suggests CRS is a significant health condition for all major race/ethnic groups in the US, accounting for a sizable portion of office, emergency, and outpatient visits. Differences in insurance status, work absenteeism, and resource utilization were found between race/ethnic groups. Despite its prevalence, few published studies include information regarding minority patients with CRS. Most(90%) cohort studies did not provide details of race/ethnicity for ESS outcomes. Prospective cohort analysis demonstrated that minority surgical patients accounted for only 18%, as compared to national census estimates(35%). Chronic rhinosinusitis is an important health condition for all major race/ethnic groups in the US. Significant differences may exist across racial and ethnic categories with regard to CRS health status and healthcare utilization. Given current demographic shifts in the US, specific attention should be given to understanding CRS within the context of racial and ethnic populations.
