AbstractA case of mucormycosis involving the nose and paranasalsinuses in a 55-year-old man with recently diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukaemia is reported. It was successfully treated with a combination of aggressive surgical debridement and systemic amphotericin B. In addition, local nebulized amphotericin B was used as an adjunct totherapy. We believe this is only the second documented use of nebulized amphotericin in the management of sinonasal mucormycosis. The needfor a high index of suspicion and early aggressive management is emphasized.
