Nasal polyposis pathophysiology: Endotype and phenotype open issues

Endotyping chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) poses a challenge for rhinologists nowadays. Phenotyping CRSwNP proved inappropriate as an approach to their classification because of their common clinical features. Endotyping, being based on the pathogenic mechanism, provides a precise picture more appropriate for use in clinical practice. Patients' treatment and follow-up can thus be tailored to cope with the degree of aggressiveness of a specific CRSwNP endotype.The aim of this study was to analyze the available information about the main currently accepted endotypes of CRSwNP; furthermore, we reported and commented evidence regarding some clinical conditions associated with nasal polyposis which could be related with new endotypes.
