Dr. Lakshmi K., Dr Suchit Roy B. R., Dr. Susan James
Abstract: Fungal balls, a form of non - invasive fungal sinusitis, pose a diagnostic challenge due to their rarity. This article presents a case of fungal ball of the frontal sinus seen in an immunocompetent individual. The case highlights the multifaceted presentation and differential diagnoses of this condition emphasizing the importance of awareness among clinicians. In such cases, management depends on the extent of disease and can range from simple endoscopic procedures to extensive resections and flap reconstructions.
