title: Intranasal corticosteroid monotherapy in acute rhinosinusitis: an evidence-based case report.
abstract: In this evidence-based case report we studied the clinical question: Does intranasal corticosteroid (INCS) monotherapy reduce time to recovery in adults with acute noncomplicated rhinosinusitis? The search yielded 490 papers, of which only two were relevant and had a high validity regarding our clinical question.
