ObjectiveConsidering that all the evidence indicates that chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) are distinct entities, the aim of this study was to compare the concentrations obtained in plasma and in sinonasal mucosa with oral and nasal topical ciprofloxacin, in patients with and without nasal polyps, without evaluating the effectiveness of the use of an antibiotic.MethodsProspective clinical study with single-blind randomization. The population consisted of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with eligible for endonasal surgery, over 18 years old. It took place between January 2010 and December 2014. A single preoperative dose of ciprofloxacin (oral or nasal topic- spray, gel or drops) was given and samples of plasma and nasal mucosa (inferior turbinate, middle turbinate, ethmoid and maxillary sinus) were collected prior to surgery. The plasma and mucosal ciprofloxacin concentrations were assayed with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection (FD).ResultsThe oral ciprofloxacin achieved better mucosal concentrations but had a significant plasmatic expression in all patients. None of the topical formulations achieved measurable ciprofloxacin plasmatic levels. Among the topical formulations, the gel had the best mucosal results, despite the existence of polyposis.
