Abstract
This is an integrative review using the VHL, SciELO, LILACS and PubMed as databases over the last 5 years. 997 articles on the topic were evaluated with an emphasis on a synthesis of the most recent knowledge and greater scientific consistency. Sinusitis is inflammation of the paranasal sinuses resulting from viral, bacterial or fungal infections or allergic reactions. Symptoms include nasal obstruction and congestion, purulent rhinorrhea, facial pain or pressure; sometimes there is malaise, headache and/or fever. It is concluded that sinus infections are almost always diagnosed clinically. Imaging tests are not indicated in acute sinusitis unless there are results that suggest complications. Empirical treatment of acute viral rhinitis involves inhalation and topical or systemic vasoconstrictors.
