Chronic rhinosinusitis is one of the most common chronic diseases in the population. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) in adults is predominantly characterized by a type 2 inflammatory endotype. If sufficient control cannot be achieved through primary drug therapy, surgical intervention is usually recommended as the next stage of treatment. Nowadays, various biologics are available that have been or will be approved for use in these patients. This review summarizes the presentations from the 29th Congress of the European Rhinologic Society in Sofia 2023 and the latest findings on decision-making in the treatment of CRSwNP. Standard therapy with medication and sinus surgery fails in some patients with CRSwNP. Biologics that act on the type 2 inflammatory pathway led to a reduction in the nasal polyp score (NPS), an improvement in nasal obstruction, and an improvement in quality of life without significant side effects. Biomarkers such as total IgE, serum eosinophils, and Osteoprotegerin (OPG) can provide indications of the success of the treatment. In summary, it can be said that for many patients with recurrent CRSwNP, a combination of paranasal sinus surgery and treatment with a biologic that is precisely tailored to the patient's endotype is the best option. However, the question of which surgical approach and which biologic at which time and for which patient is still ongoing and requires further studies.
