Abstract
The association of fungus in allergic fungal rhino sinusitis has been around 200 times in the world literature. As per
the available literature, the most common agent identified so far appears to be ASPERGILLUS, though the condition
is increasingly associated with Dematiaceous fungi. Here we report for the first time the presence of unusual fungus in
allergic rhino sinusitis, which has not been reported so far.
