Core Tip |
Invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (IFR) caused by Cunninghamella is very rare but has an extremely high fatality rate. There have been only seven cases of IFR caused by Cunninghamella reported in English and, of these, only three patients survived. The middle turbinate has been found to be the most common site of invasion, followed by the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses. Antifungal drug treatment and/or surgical treatments are the most important fundamental treatments. In this article, we present another case of IFR caused by Cunninghamella, in which the patient was initially treated successfully but then deteriorated due to a relapse of leukemia 2 mo later. |
