Prognostic Role of Chronic Rhinosinusitis in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Undergoing Mechanical Thrombectomy

Background: The aim of the study was to assess the relevance of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) CT features to the efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: This study included 311 patients qualified for MT in whom the CRS features were assessed based on...

description Background: The aim of the study was to assess the relevance of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) CT features to the efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: This study included 311 patients qualified for MT in whom the CRS features were assessed based on a CT scan, according to the Lund-Mackay (L-M) score. Clinical, inflammatory parameters, patients neurological (NIHSS) and functional status (mRS), and recanalisation efficacy (TICI) were compared between patients with mild lesions (L-M score 0–3 points)-group 1, and patients with more severe lesions (L–M score 4–24)-group 2. Results: There was a significant difference in the NIHSS on day seven after stroke onset-10 points in group 1 and 14 points in group 2, <i>p</i> = 0.02. NIHSS ≤ 6 points on day seven was found in 41.9% of patients in group 1, and in 27.5% in group 2, <i>p</i> = 0.042. There were no significant differences in mRS score and in the TICI score. L-M score, lipid abnormalities and CRP were factors associated with NIHSS ≥ 7 points on day 7. Conclusions: The CT features of CRS may be used as a prognostic tool for early prognosis assessment in stroke patients.
