CRSwNP can be further subcategorized into endotypes including aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS), and, recently, central compartment atopic disease (CCAD) has been proposed as a novel endotype.2 There is a complex relationship between allergic rhinitis (AR) and CRS3; one potential link may be CCAD.

There was no statistically significant difference in the inhalant allergen sensitization profiles of patients with AR and CCAD, except for a higher prevalence of weed allergy in the CCAD group, which barely reached statistical significance.
