Only FDA-approved treatment options were considered in this stepwise approach for CRSwNP because these therapies had undergone rigorous safety and efficacy evaluation. The value of these therapies compared with those of time tested and better studied therapies such as ESS and aspirin desensitization certainly need to be considered on an individual basis. Most otolaryngologists and allergists would agree that this patient would require a host of interventions including a complete ESS, oral and topical corticosteroids, endotype-specific therapies such as type 2 targeting biologics and consideration for aspirin desensitization in aspirin triad (also known as AERD) patients.
