Objective: In this study, we aimed to clarify the prognostic factors affecting the ethmoid condition duHng a long-term follow-up after endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP).Methods: Thirty-six patients with CRSwNP underwent surgery from December 2008 to February 2012. All surgeries were performed by one surgeon, and all patients were followed up for at least 2 years postoperatively. We investigated the association of postoperative endoscopic findings with clinical parameters, mucosal eosinophil count and mRNA expression of CCL11, IL-5, and IFN-gamma in nasal polyps.Results: Seventeen patients (47.2%) had severe mucosal edema, and the patency of each sinus was not confirmed during the >2-year follow-up. The mucosal eosinophil count and two eosinophil-associated factors, namely the CCL11 and IL-5 mRNA levels, were higher in the severe mucosal edema group than in the control group. The severe mucosal edema group was divided into two subgroups: the steroid-responsive and-resistant groups. Five patients (13.9%) had frank polyp formation because the oral steroids were less effective. The mucosal eosinophil count was significantly different among the four groups, including the control group (p = 0.001); however, the CCL11, 11-5, and LPN-gamma mRNA levels were not significantly different. Although the IL-5 mRNA level was not significantly different among the four groups, it tended to increase when the sinus condition worsened. In the severe mucosal edema group, a higher IL-5 mRNA level was associated with earlier severe mucosal edema in the ethmoid cavity.Conclusion: The IL-5 mRNA level is associated with the time of severe edema formation in the ethmoid cavity. This finding permits early intervention on the postoperative course and would prevent polyp recurrence. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
