Abstract

The sinonasal tract is a common site of fungal infections. Sinus rhinosinusitis is usually clinically indolent, but fungal sinus rhinosinusitis can be a fulminant and life-threatening disease. Levels of IgA, plasma cells, and lymphocytes in the secretion of fungal sinusitis are elevated. Other inflammatory cells do not infiltrate, suggesting that mucosal immunity induced by fungal colonization plays a vital role in disease progression. Treatment necessarily includes complete excision of the fungal masses from the affected sinus and the subsequent use of antifungal agents that completely eliminate the pathogen.
