IgE-mediated fungal allergy in allergic fungal sinusitis
The Laryngoscope, 04/17/09
Pant H et al. - This review will address the current knowledge of the pathogenic mechanisms in allergic fungal sinusitis and the basis for the current classification of a subgroup of chronic rhinosinusitis patients. Special attention is directed to the role of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated fungal allergy in the pathogenesis of AFS. Concepts relating to the mucosal inflammatory response are introduced, as a knowledge of the reactions of the sinus mucosal cells can lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms perpetuating and maintaining the chronic inflammation.
