NCT05369039

Brief Summary

The current study will be a pilot study for a randomized controlled trial conducted on 60 patients recruited from the outpatient clinic of the Otorhinolaryngology Department, Menoufia Faculty of Medicine after approval of the institutional review board and taking informed written consent from every patient before participation in the study. The patients of this study will be randomly and equally distributed among case and control groups to compare the effect of Roflumilust administration with the effect of systemic and local corticosteroids on patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis
