ABSTRACT
Conidiobolomycosis/Nasofacial zygomycosis is a relatively rare disease entity. It is almost always caused by Conidiobolus coronatus and is also known as conidiobolomycosis. It has been more commonly reported in tropical countries than in other regions. Diagnosis is made mainly on a clinical and pathological basis as fungal cultures may be difficult to grow. Different antimycotic drugs have been tried for its treatment. This report probably is the first case in English literature that has shown a very good response to treatment with itraconazole.
