Abstract：ObjectiveTo explore prevalence of nasal anatomy abnormality and the chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS), and to provide the evidence for aircrew recruitment in nasal cavity, diagnosis and treatment of disease and medical evaluation. MethodsThe nasal CT scanning graph of the 82 aricrews were anaylsed and evaluated for the anatomy abnormality and the chronic rhinosinusitis.ResultsFor 82 aricrews, general incidence of the nasal anatomy abnormality was 100%. The types of common variants were deviation of nasal septum (70.7%), uncinate process (67.1%), frontal cells (63.4%), middle turbinate (54.9%) and inferior turbinate (42.7%). The prevalence rate of CRS was 42.7%. The prevalence of CRS and the abnormality of OMC was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionNasal anatomy abnormality was common among aircrew, especially at OMC and closely related to the high incidence of CRS. Nasal HRCT can well display the nasal anatomy abnormality and diagnosis CRS,so the role of CT scanning should be attached great importance to.
