Abstract :

Recurrent chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with post-surgical complications is a rare and challenging clinical condition.[1] CRS generally improves after Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS); however, in some patients, symptoms persist or recur due to abnormal mucosal regeneration, chronic inflammation, and environmental sensitivity.[2,3] This case study reports a 28-year-old male patient presenting with persistent nasal obstruction, facial swelling, recurrent “epistaxis” and fever even after previous sinus surgery.[4] Radiological findings revealed recurrent mucosal hypertrophy and sinus obstruction.[5] During postoperative management, the patient developed an adverse drug reaction to ceftriaxone, which was promptly identified and managed.[6,7] The patient was treated with alternative antibiotics and planned for revision surgery.[3,5] This case highlights the importance of early recognition of surgical failure, rare complications, and drug safety monitoring.[7,8]
