Invasive Fugal Sinusitis Causing Massive Epistaxis: A Case Report

Author(s):

Rovira A, Suarez G, Gonzalez-Compte X and Cisa E

Background: Invasive fungal sinusitis (IFS) is a rare entity. An increase of IFS cases is observed as the number of immunosuppressive conditions are rising. Clinical suspicion is paramount due to the rapid and aggressive behaviour of this condition. Early surgical debridement and antifungal therapy correspond the first treatment option. Overall survival rate has been reported between 50-100%. Internal carotid artery rupture is a rare complication that may cause death; when present, the endovascular approach seems to be the best option for treatment.
