Microbiome of the Middle Meatus, Tonsils, and Adenoids in Pediatric Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Otolaryngology2024Vol. 172(2), pp. 642–650
Abstract
There were significant differences in alpha diversity and bacterial composition between the anatomic 3 sites; however, there was no difference between the controls and subjects. The larger dissimilarity in bacterial composition between adenoid and MM sites in controls compared to subjects suggests there may be colonization of the MM by the adenoid in PCRS patients.
