[Severe nasosinus aspergillosis in immunosuppressed patients. Apropos of 3 cases]

Abstract

Nasosinusal lesions due to Aspergillus rarely occur during immunosuppressive chemotherapy, but are extremely grave, and often fatal due to the extensive necrotizing mucoperiostitis of facial bones provoked under these conditions. Three cases are reported, with recovery in one case only, after exenteration of orbit and denudation of dura mater in orbital roof.
