Background. Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is the persistent inflammation of the mucosa in the middle ear cleft .
Sinusitis, in particular, plays a significant role as a focal sepsis in the majority of cases. The current study aims to investigate the
clinical profile and diagnostic techniques for these individuals, specifically focussing on sinusitis as the main source of infection.
Methods. A clinical trial was done at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, National Institute of Medical Science Research
and Hospital, Jaipur, from June 15, 2022, to December 31, 2023, after obtaining clearance from the Board of Studies and Ethical
Committee. The main aim was to assess the significance of previous diagnostic nasal endoscopy in these patients.
