Abstract
Fungal sinusitis may be caused by filamentous fungi such as mucorales, aspergillus and entomophthorales. Mucormycosis and aspergillosis have immunocompromised states as specific risk factors, whereas entomophthorales may occur in apparently healthy persons having significant soil contact. This is, nonetheless, a rare condition with involvement of mucosa of the nose, para nasal sinuses and centrofacial soft tissues, without bony or angioinvasion. It grows relentlessly, however, and may mimic soft tissue neoplasm causing facial disfigurement.
