Two cases of fungal infection of the nose and paranasal sinuses by rhinophycomycosis and actinomycosis are reported. The clinical diagnoses in both cases were wrong and in one of them, a malignancy was suspected. These cases are the first to be reported from Central Nigeria. The authors feel that fungal granuloma should be included on the differential diagnoses list for patients with swellings of the nose and paranasal sinuses in this environment.
报告了两例由鼻藻菌病和放线菌病引起的鼻及鼻窦真菌感染病例。两例的临床诊断均有误，其中一例怀疑为恶性肿瘤。这些病例是尼日利亚中部地区首次报告的此类病例。作者认为，在该地区，对于鼻及鼻窦肿胀的患者，真菌性肉芽肿应列入鉴别诊断清单。
