The diagnosis and management of the various forms is similar, but has important distinctions. This Patient Management Perspectives discusses each of the main forms of sinusitis and outlines the evaluation and management, highlighting the most recent guidelines from the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery Foundation
