RADIOLOGICAL SPECTRUM OF SINONASAL MUCORMYCOSIS IN COVID POSITIVE PATIENTS

At present, sinonasal mucormycosis is most worrisome COVID-19 related complication in India while western countries have relatively stayed aloof. But given the pervasive nature of fungi and presence of all predisposing conditions even in western countries, it is imperative to have knowledge about th...

Zusammenfassung:At present, sinonasal mucormycosis is most worrisome COVID-19 related complication in India while western countries have relatively stayed aloof. But given the pervasive nature of fungi and presence of all predisposing conditions even in western countries, it is imperative to have knowledge about the imaging patterns and staging of the disease. In this study, we try to single out factors responsible for the sudden increment in the incidence of sinonasal mucormycosis among covid-19 patients and discuss their imaging features.
