Abstract	Aims: (1) To find out the incidence of contralateral DNS in relation to concha bullosa. (2) To find out the incidence of PNS disease in relation to concha bullosa.(3)To determine whether there is any statistical correlation of concha bullosa with DNS and chronic sinusitis. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was carried out in the Department of ENT, Silchar Medical College and Hospital. Study group comprised of 286 patients, from age group of 5 to 65 yrs, with Computed tomography scan of PNS showing one or more of the following findings concha bullosa, nasal septal deviation, chronic sinusitis. Exclusion criteria included acute Sinusitis, any other anatomical aberration of the nose, prior surgery of nose and/or PNS, faciomaxillary trauma, any growth in the nasal cavity or PNS, patients who could not afford CT scan of PNS. Chi square test and Correlation Coefficient was used to evaluate statistical relevance. Results: In our study, we found the incidence of contralateral DNS in relation to concha bullosa to be 69.41%, correlation coefficient +1 and p value <0.05. The incidence of ipsilateral PNS disease in relation to concha bullosa was 47.93%, correlation coefficient -1 and p value >0.05. Conclusion: A positive statistical correlation was found between concha bullosa and contralateral DNS. However the relationship of concha bullosa and ipsilateral PNS disease was not found to be statistically relevant. A review of available literature has shown studies that support our results, however few studies negate it. Further large scale studies are warranted for reaching a uniform conclusion.
