Self\u2010ratings (0\u2010 to 10\u2010point scale) and measurements of olfactory function with standardized Sniffin' Sticks odor threshold and identification tests were assessed 1 day before surgery, and at 6 weeks (26\u201378 days) and 7 months (132\u2013318 days) after surgery. Relationships were studied with Spearman correlation coefficients. Cutoff points of self\u2010rating scores for olfactory deficit were established using the receiver operating characteristic curve.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, olfactory function self\u2010ratings and measurements correlated strongly preoperatively (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = \u22120.66, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .0001) and postoperatively (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = \u22120.67 at 6 weeks and \u22120.66 at 7 months, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .0001). This relationship was better in patients with previous surgery. The correlation was weaker before surgery (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = \u22120.35, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .01) than after in hyposmic\/anosmic patients (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = \u22120.74, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .0001 at 6 weeks and <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = \u22120.73, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .0002 at 7 months) and was not found in normosmic patients. Self\u2010ratings of nasal patency and smell were not correlated when two complaints were dissociated.
