Research Abstract	Pathological mechanism of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinutis has not been clarified. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the contribution of fungi detected by nasal polyp to eosinophilic chronic rhinosinutis. The present study suggested fungi contributed to a part of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinutis. However, the further study is needed to know what kinds of fungi and what components of them contribute.
