Abstract

Key points: Hispanic-American patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps have a comparable level of tissue eosinophilia compared to their Caucasian counterparts in the United States. Mixed inflammation involving both neutrophils and eosinophils is more common in this population compared to Caucasians. Findings from this study may indicate that Hispanic-American patients have a unique endotype or endotypes that deserves further investigation.
