Generally, nasal polyps cannot be cured. No studies have demonstrated definitive therapeutic efficacy. Treatment for nasal polyps should be individualized based on disease severity and the presence or absence of sinusitis to achieve optimal outcomes. If nasal polyps are extensive and associated with prominent clinical symptoms, surgical intervention should be considered. Currently, endoscopic sinus surgery is the most commonly used approach—a minimally invasive procedure offering favorable overall outcomes and minimal tissue damage—though regular follow-up visits are required.
