The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of osteopenia\/osteoporosis (OP) or low bone density (LBD) in patients with CRS with\/without polyposis treated with oral glucocorticoids.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n Retrospective chart analysis was performed at a tertiary-care rhinology practice. Patients with CRS with\/without polyposis evaluated between September 2003 and July 2008 were included if they had (1) previous history of oral steroid usage (\u22655 mg daily for at least 3 months) and (2) previous bone mineral density evaluation.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n A total of 197 patients were included with a mean age of 51.1 years (range, 15\u201379 years). The primary presenting diagnoses included CRS with polyposis in 176 cases (89.3%) and CRS without polyposis in 21 cases (10.7%). Concomitant asthma was present in 161 patients (81.7%). Overall, the prevalence of low bone mass was 38.6%. Among men >50 years of age and postmenopausal women, the prevalence of osteopenia\/OP or LBD was 62.5 and 62.2%, respectively. Comparing men >50 years of age and postmenopausal women to their respective younger populations, both had a statistically higher presence of low bone mass (p < 0.0001), with an odds ratio of 10.6 (3.9\u201328.7) and 34.6 (7.4\u2013161.5), respectively. There was no statistical difference in the presence of bone loss when comparing groups by gender. A multivariable analysis of common comorbidities revealed age to be the only factor associated with increased risk for OP\/osteopenia or LBD.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Patients with CRS with\/without polyposis treated with oral steroids who underwent bone density testing were found to have a high prevalence of LBD. High index of suspicion is required to identify at-risk patients and to initiate careful evaluation and treatment to prevent additional bone-related complications.<\/jats:p>\n
