Abstract
Among the main causes of olfactory disorders are chronic rhinosinusitis, head trauma, acute infections of the upper respiratory tract and neurodegenerative diseases. Olfactory disorders can impose major restrictions on our lives. Although there are numerous approaches for the therapy of olfactory disorders, double-blind comparison studies are needed to distinguish between the effects of these therapies and spontaneous remission of olfactory disorders. The most significant aspects of treatments seem to be anti-inflammatory measures and the regenerative capabilities of the olfactory neuroepithelium.Entities:
