Fungal sinusitis are very often caused by Aspergillus spp. Dematiaceae spp. and mucomycoses. Sinusitis with Scedosporium spp is very rare, especially in immunocompetent humans. A 42-year-old female presented with long history of facial pain and headache. Isolated opacification of maxillary sinus with double density sign was noted on left side in the CT scan. Diagnosed as fungal rhino sinusitis and endoscopic sinus surgery was carried out to clear the disease of the sinus and further mycological evaluation proved the organism to be Scedosporium apiospermum. We report the rare case of a non-invasive isolated fungal sinusitis caused by fungi Scedosporium apiospermum.

真菌性鼻窦炎通常由曲霉属、暗色孢科真菌和毛霉菌引起。由多育赛多孢菌引起的鼻窦炎非常罕见,尤其是在免疫功能正常的人群中。一名42岁女性,有长期面部疼痛和头痛病史。CT扫描显示左侧上颌窦孤立性混浊伴双重密度征。诊断为真菌性鼻-鼻窦炎,并进行了鼻内镜鼻窦手术以清除鼻窦疾病,进一步的真菌学评估证实病原体为多育赛多孢菌。我们报告了一例由多育赛多孢菌引起的非侵袭性孤立性真菌性鼻窦炎的罕见病例。
