Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Rhinosinusitis is a condition that is more common in adults (age 18-64) than children, mostly because of more developed sinus cavities. The incidence of acute sinusitis ranges between 1,500 to 4,000 per 100,000 cases per year, depending on the setting.[1] Chronic sinusitis, on the other hand, is described in terms of prevalence. It is estimated that the prevalence of chronic sinusitis is 12,300 per 100,000 cases per year. [2] Conditions such as asthma, hay fever and rhinosinusitis seem to be more prevalent in women than men.
