Brief Summary

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps is a common nasal comorbidity with a wide range of symptoms that might cause severe distress and disabilities for patients. Many patients undergo repeated courses of systemic steroids and are exposed to various adverse effects. many cases finally revert to surgery. Budesonide was safely used as a nasal wash in cases of nasal polyps, our aim to determine If intrapolyp injection is a better method for delivering budesonide.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • SNOT-22 Score

    as a subjective method to assess the patients' quality of life "QOL" and the severity of the disease prior to treatment and after. All patients will fill the 22 item questionnaire where the severity of each symptom was determined by 5 point scale where 0 "no problem", 1" very mild problem", 2 "mild or slight problem", 3 "moderate problem", 4 "severe problem", 5" Problem as bad as it can be" Where the sum of each individual item score provides the SNOT-22 score

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Lund Mackay score

    3 months

Other Outcomes (4)

  • total nasal polyp score

    3 months

  • Total Serum IgE

    3 months

  • the morning plasma cortisol level

    1 month

  • +1 more other outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Budesonide Intrapolyp injection

EXPERIMENTAL

patients are to receive Endoscopic Intrapolyp steroid injection weekly for 5 weeks, using the following technique, where 2 nasal packs soaked in xylometazoline hydrochloride 0.1% " Otrivin adult nasal drops" applied one pack in each nostril for 5 minutes before injection, then using the 0° nasal endoscopy patients receive intrapolyp budesonide injection by 0.5 mg/ml budesonide respules "commercially available as Pulmicort ampules" 1 ml for each nostril using 1 cc 28 gauge needle sterile syringe, where injections carefully distributed amongst visible polyps avoiding visible vessels, No local anesthesia will be used before injections, patients come back to the clinic weekly to complete a series of 5 injections.

Drug: Budesonide intrapolyp injection

budesonide wash

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients will be instructed to perform budesonide nasal wash, through a 250 ml squeeze bottle filled with saline, 0.5 mg/ml budesonide "Pulmicort ampule" added to the solution and half the amount used for each nostril, patients gurgle with antiseptic solution to minimize the risk of oral candidiasis, patients carry out the wash twice daily for one month duration

Drug: Budesonide nasal wash

Oral steroid

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients receive oral prednisolone 1 mg/kg/d tapering it by 5 mg/day for 2 weeks, patients will be prescribed omeprazole 20mg protective against gastrointestinal effects of steroid

Drug: Prednisolone tablets

Interventions
