Improving the Evidence for Inferior Turbinate Surgery in Children

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common chronic diseases in children, and its prevalence among children in the United States has been increasing in recent years. Allergic rhinitis and its associated comorbidities have accounted for 800 000 to 2 million lost school days annually and has been shown to have an impact on learning, behavior, and attention.
