title: [Analysis on non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis for 59 cases by endoscopic sinus surgery].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the etiology and clinical features of non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis and to evaluate the methods and curative effects of endoscopic sinus surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  The denial and follow-up data of 59 patients with non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis were retrospectively analyzed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Following up for 2-5 years, no complications were observed. Fifty-seven patients were cured and two cases were recurred.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Clearing up the infected focus by endoscopic sinus surgery is an effective treatment of non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis. Enlarging the opening of cavity during the operation, the regular irrigation and rechecking after the operation were important for avoiding the recurrence.
