The clinical distinction of chronic respiratory rhinitis appears to confirm the evo-devo theory of the three noses. The authors report two cases of advanced allergic rhinitis, in which chronic inflammation had induced a violaceous colour of the mucosa of the respiratory nose and a whitish polypoid appearance of the free edge of the middle turbinate. Nose and paranasal sinus CT scan revealed, beyond the virtual nasal cavities observed on nasal endoscopy and CT imaging, normal radiolucency or only minor opacities of the ethmoid (i.e. olfactory nose) and paranasal sinuses that could not explain the severity of the chronic nasal dysfunction. The hypothesis of non-allergic chronic respiratory rhinitis is developed according to these two observations. The differential diagnosis between chronic respiratory rhinitis and dysfunction of the cavernous plexuses of the respiratory nose is discussed. A precise diagnosis appears to be a prerequisite for appropriate and effective management. Surgery of the respiratory nose can associate septoplasty to inferior turbinoplasty, but must be preceded and combined with medical treatment adapted to the underlying inflammatory process.
