Chronic polypous ethmoiditis is a persistent inflammatory condition affecting the ethmoid sinuses, often leading to nasal obstruction, anosmia, and recurrent infections. Effective management requires precise diagnostic tools and tailored treatment approaches. This study explores advancements in diagnostic imaging, endoscopic techniques, and pharmacological treatments to enhance patient outcomes. Emphasis is placed on minimally invasive procedures, individualized treatment plans, and post-treatment care. The findings provide a comprehensive framework for optimizing the diagnosis and management of chronic polypous ethmoiditis, reducing recurrence rates and improving quality of life for patients.
