Abstract:
Antrochoanal polyp (ACP) are benign lesions that arise from the maxillary sinus, grow into the maxillary sinus, and reach the choana, nasal obstruction being their main symptom. A fungal ball (FB) is a dense accumulation of extra mucosal fungal hyphae, usually within one sinus, most commonly the maxillary sinus. We describe a case of a 38-year-old male with a concomitant unilateral maxillary FB and ACP which was surgically excised by endoscopic sinus surgery.
