متن کاملFungal septal abscess complicating maxillary sinus fungus balls in an immunocompetent host
BACKGROUND Fungal infections of the nasal cavity can be destructive entities that are typically seen in immunocompromised hosts. We present a case of a localized fungal abscess of the nasal septum in an immunocompetent host after endoscopic treatment of maxillary sinus fungus balls. METHOD A 51-year-old woman with a history of asthma and recent treatment with oral steroids presented with bila...
