Lacrimal sac Aspergillosis Masquerading as Malignancy: A Rare Case Report.

Invasive fungal infections are uncommon in an immunocompetent host and pose a real diagnostic dilemma. As they have a propensity for locoregional destruction, clinic-radiological findings can mislead to a faulty diagnosis of a malignancy. Here we present a case of Primary Aspergillus dacryocystitis in an immunocompetent individual initially thought to be an orbital malignancy until the histopathological examination.

One More Chance to See the World: A Rare Case Report on Sphenoid Mucocele Causing Vision Loss.

Mucocele of the sphenoid sinus is one of the rare diseases which an ENT surgeon can encounter in a clinical setup. It can often present as a chronic headache. It can remain undiagnosed unless a symptom due to the compression effect of the mucocele, such as diminution of vision, ophthalmoplegia, or any intracranial complication, occurs. Early diagnosis and emergency surgical intervention are imperative to prevent complications. Although late presentation can have a risk of permanent vision loss, improvement in vision postsurgery does not necessarily depend on the duration of symptoms. Here, we present a rare case scenario where, even after the delayed presentation, the patient had a significant vision improvement postsurgery.
