Studies demonstrated the ANP-presence in the mucosa of human turbinates, the study aimed to investigate about the ANP-presence of human turbinates of patients with rhinitis after treatment with the Botulinum Toxin-A (BTX-A) since no data are reported. Results show that in BTX-A treated patients ANP is present in the ciliated and basal cells of epithelium of tonaca mucosa and some glands; therefore ANP presence is more intense than in mucosa of untreated patients.
