Chronic atrophic rhinitis
Chronic atrophic rhinitis (often simply atrophic rhinitis) is a chronic inflammation of the nose characterised by atrophy of nasal mucosa, including the glands, turbinate bones and the nerve elements supplying the nose. Chronic atrophic rhinitis may be primary and secondary. Special forms of chronic atrophic rhinitis are rhinitis sicca anterior and ozaena. It can be described by empty nose syndrome.
