Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Degree of change in histopathological pattern of nasal mucosa

    A nasal mucosal biopsy will be obtained in all cases. Five subheadings for histopathology; Each variable was assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2 where 0 representing normal nasal mucosal features, whereas 2 signifying extreme variation, 1. Status of epithelium: respiratory epithelium (pseudo stratified columnar ciliated epithelium, squamous metaplasia (partial/total ± keratinization); Denuded or not 2. Status of mucous cells (Normal glands / ↓ number and size / Absence) 3. Condition of blood vessels (Reduced vascularity or Dilated blood vessels / Periarteritis/ Endarteritis). 4. Tunica propria: Granulation tissue Presence of Chronic inflammatory cellular infiltrate Degree of Fibrosis Chronic inflammatory cellular infiltration with fibrosis Basement membrane (Normal / Ill-defined /Thickened) Seromucinus glands especially the serous component

    12 weeks after end of the procedure.

  • Degree of change in patient satisfaction and quality of life

    Symptom score, Sinonasal Outcome Test 25 (SNOT 25) will be noted .

    12 weeks after end of the procedure.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Assess the nasal mucociliary function .

    12 weeks after end of the procedure.

Study Arms (2)

study group group (1)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

the group which will undergo submucosal injection of platelet rich plasma

Procedure: nasal submucosal injection of platelet rich plasma

comparative group group (2)

NO INTERVENTION

patients using the usual lines of medical treatment like nasal douching and lubricants

Interventions

* The selected region will be infiltrated with a cold saline solution with addition of 1 mL of adrenaline and 25 mL of 2% lignocaine per 500 mL saline. * Platelet-rich plasma is prepared by drawing 10 mL of blood sample from the patient. * The blood will be centrifuged at 1530 g for 10 min to obtain platelet-poor plasma. * This will again centrifuged at 2720 g for 10 min to get platelet-rich plasma. * Approximately 1 mL of platelet-rich plasma will be obtained from 10 mL blood. Usually amount of about 3ml is needed to be injected in each nostril at the affected sites of inferior and middle turbinates, septum and floor of the nose. Platelet rich plasma injected into the affected area after degranulating the platelet by adding 0.5 mL of calcium chloride. * Injection interval of 2 weeks (up to total 3 consecutive injections). * Follow-up duration: 4 months
