Etiological properties of microflora in patients of different ages with various forms of sinusitis

Over the past decades, significant progress has been noted in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory tract diseases, in particular, various forms of sinusitis - a pathology that affects more than 20% of the world's population. Achievements in the field of immunology, genetics, and the results of fundamental research have brought researchers closer to solving many problems associated with the emergence and development of pathological changes in tissues at the cellular, molecular level. The creation of new pharmacological drugs, the discovery of more advanced antibiotic molecules made it possible to successfully combat various types of infectious pathogens. The introduction of microsurgical techniques into practice, the development of minimally invasive methods of surgical intervention, functional rhinosinus surgery have determined a qualitatively new approach to the treatment of sinusitis.
