Rhinosporidiosis. Report of a case with an unusual presentation with bony involvement.
Background Rhinosporidiosis, a fungal infection due to Rhinosporidium seeberi, frequently
produces polypoidal lesions in the nose. Sites like the conjunctiva, larynx, trachea,
nasopharynx, skin and genitourinary tract are less frequently involved. Generalized
rhinosporidiosis with skin and visceral involvement is extremely rare. This report describes
the fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of rhinosporidiosis occurring as a solitary lesion
with erosion of cortical bone.
