ABSTRACT
Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by Rhinosporidium Seeberi. Although a variety of sites may be affected, the principal site of infection is the nasal mucosa, the disease is endemic in India and Sri Lanka, smaller series are also described from East Africa and parts of America, but it is very rare in Europe. The 116 cases seen in the Medical College at Bankura during January 1983 to December 1987 are presented here. The disease is more prevalant in males and in the second decade of life. Excision by diathermy knife and electrocautery of the base proved to be helpful to prevent recurrence.
