Aspirin desensitization (AD) is effective in relieving asthma and sinonasal outcomes in patients with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD). So far, only a limited number of studies evaluated the effect of AD prospectively in a controlled manner in N-ERD. It is also a current approach to recommend endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) before AD. This study aimed to prospectively document the clinical effects of AD for 1 year in patients with N-ERD who underwent ESS in the presence of a control group. The study included patients with N-ERD who underwent AD (group 1,  n  = 22) and patients with N-ERD in whom desensitization was indicated but was not performed (group 2,  n  = 21). All patients had ESS before enrollment in the study. Asthma and rhinosinusitis outcomes were assessed at baseline and after 1 year. The study included a total of 43 subjects (F/M:28/15, mean age: 44.7 ± 2.8 years). Fewer patients had nasal polyp recurrency in group 1 (5/22, 22.7%) than in group 2 (11/21, 52.3%) at the end of the first year ( p  = 0.035). Smell-test scores were preserved only in group 1 after 1 year. There were significant decreases in the use of both asthma and nasal medications only in group 1. Our results strongly support the use of AD for the improvement of both nasal and asthmatic outcomes in patients with N-ERD for 1 year. We also recommend patients undergo ESS before AD. Further controlled studies are necessary to evaluate whether this effect lasts longer.
