Abstract

Nasal polyposis is a frequent disease, sometime associated with asthma and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs intolerance. Staphylococcus aureus colonization can play a pathogenetic role in same cases by a severe eosinophilic inflammation, which can suggest new therapeutic approaches. Staphylococcus aureus colonization has been demonstrated by local specific enterotoxins IgE dosage in polyps homogenates. This study demonstrate lack of detection of serum enterotoxins specific IgE to staphylococcal in patients with nasal polyposis, compared with healthy subjects.
