    • Complications of sinusitis are often the initial presentation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges of pediatric sinusitis.
    • To discuss emerging etiologies, including fungal infections in immunocompromised children.
    • To emphasize the increasing complexity of acute sinus inflammation in pediatric care.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current understanding of pediatric sinusitis.
    • Analysis of factors contributing to diagnostic difficulty.
    • Examination of the impact of chemotherapy and immune deficiency on sinusitis.
