Women electing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) report higher symptom burden but have lower computed tomography (CT) scores. Gender-specific analysis of outcomes from ESS therefore merits further study. The objective of this work was to study gender-specific differences in outcomes from ESS for CRS by analyzing preoperative and postoperative 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) scores.
