Abstract: Objective: To study fungal distribution in the nasal cavity of patients with nasal polyps and control. Methods: Seventy patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps were enrolled in the experimental group, and fifty volunteers were enrolled in the control group. Secretions on the surface of nasal polyps were collected under sterile condition and examined under a microscope. The secretion on the surface of the middle turbinate and from the middle meatus was collected in sterilization and examined by the microscope. Results: (1) The percentage of positive fungal cultures was 51.0% and 37.7% in the experimental group and the control group, respectively. The percentage of positive fungal by examination under a microscope was 41.4% and 34% in the experimental group and the control group, respectively. (2) The percentage of positive Aspergillus species was 67.4% in the positive fungal cultures or by examination under a microscope in the experimental group and the control group. Conclusion: (1) The percentage of positive fungal by examination under a microscope and fungal cultures is similar between the experimental group and control group in the Qingdao area; (2) Aspergillus species are the major specimens in the positive fungal cultures and by examination under a microscope.
