摘要：

Nasal polyps are multifactorial in aetiology but are associated with respiratory diseases, particularly late onset asthma. Several members of a family may be affected with nasal polyps but there is little evidence for a genetic basis for this. Some evidence to support a genetic predisposition comes from the development of polyps in identical twins.
