abstract = {Objectives: Determine the concordance between light microscopy vs transmission electron microscopy for the detection of Biofilms in patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Materials and Methods: We analyzed 34 samples of patients who underwent Functional Endoscopic Surgery for Chronic Rhinosinusitis. These were processed for evaluation by light microscopy using Hematoxylin-Eosin, Gram, periodic acid-Schiff, Giemsa and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).
Results: Biofilm was not identified in any of the samples analyzed under transmission electron microscopy (TEM), these results are consistent with the results obtained with hematoxylin-eosin histological staining (HE), Gram, Giemsa and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), showing an absolute concordance with Kappa test of 100% for negative results.
Conclusion: There is a high correlation between the findings observed between the TEM and light microscopy for the negative results
Clinical significance: Create a new tool for the diagnosis of Biofilms.},
