Abstract

Fungal rhinosinusitis is not very uncommon in diabetic patients, but <i>Scedosporium apiospermum</i> as a cause of this infection is rare. We report a case of fungal rhinosinusitis by <i>Scedosporium spp</i>. in a diabetic male along with literature review. The patient is on voriconazole, with adequate therapeutic response after 6 months of follow up.
