Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effect of Pulmicort respule on rehabilitation of patients subjected to functional endoscopic sinus surgery(FESS). Methods: Twenty-seven patients suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis of polyposis type Ⅱ stage Ⅲ or type Ⅲ were enrolled in this selfcontrolled study. The left nostril was subjected to Pulmicort respule using a swell sponge just before the end of the surgery, the right, however, was not. The swell sponges were kept in the nostril for 1 week, and absorbable gelatin sponges with Pulmicort respule were given into the same nostril each time when the patients came in the following stage. The transitionary process of the mucosa was determined. Results: The excretions were decreased, the mucosa intumescence was diminished, and epithelization was established in a shorter time in the experimental group than in the control group. The cure rate was 92.6% in the experimental group and 85.2% in the control group （P＞0.05）. There were no significant differences between the two groups. Conclusion: Using Pulmicort respule locally is a benefit for relieving mucosa inflammation, shortening the stage of epithelization, and accelerating the recovery of mucosa after FESS.
