Rhinosinusitis is a common disorder in upper respiratory track infections. Rhinosinusitis is generally preceded by viral upper respiratory tract infections. The most common bacterial isolates recovered from the maxillary sinuses of patients are S. pneumonia and H. influenzae. A review of sinus aspiration studies have shown that S. pneumonia is isolated in approximately 20% to 43%, H . influenzae in 22% to 35%, M. catarrhalis in 2% to 10% of aspirates.Keywords: Rhinosinusitis, microbiology, S. pneumonia, H. influenzaeTurkiye Klinikleri J Surg Med Sci 2005, 1(3):15-17
