Overview
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
Natural History
Acute viral and bacterial rhinosinusitis are mostly self-limiting diseases, which resolve within 4 weeks. Rarely, acute bacterial sinusitis may be complicated by extension of the infection to the surrounding organs like the eye and brain.[1] If left untreated, chronic rhinosinusitis may be complicated by periorbital cellulitis, brain abscess and epidural abscess.[2]
Complications
- Acute viral rhinosinusitis: may be complicated by a secondary bacterial infection.[3]
- Acute bacterial rhinosinusitis: rare complications include periorbital and orbital cellulitis, meningitis, orbital subperiosteal and intracranial abscesses and septic cavernous sinus thrombosis.[4][5][6]
- Chronic rhinosinusitis: complications include periorbital cellulitis, epidural abscess, subdural empyema and brain abscess.[2]
Prognosis
The prognosis for acute viral and uncomplicated bacterial rhinosinusitis is excellent. Majority of morbidity and mortality seen in the cases of rhinosinusitis are due to its complications.[7]
