Acute invasive fungal sinusitis with orbital involvement
Diagnosis probable
Updates to Case Attributes
Presentation
was changed:
Hemifacial pain and swelling in a diabetic patient.
Age
changed from 55 to 55 years.
Body
was changed:
In a 55 Y/O diabetic patient with left hemifacial pain and swelling ; Features of left maxillary, ethmoidal and frontal sinusitis are seen with extention into left orbit and causing orbital abscess and proptosis. No definite hyperdense components are seen on the non contrast images.
The The findings consistent favour fungal sinusitis with orbital abscess (likely acute invasive).
