Abstract
An unusual case of aspergilloma in the maxillary sinus caused by an albino variant of Aspergillus fumigatus var ellipticus is presented. Removal of the fungus ball by a left Caldwell-Luc procedure resulted in complete recovery for the patient. This case is the 17th culturally proven case of paranasal aspergilloma caused by A fumigatus, the third case reported from the United States, the first case due to aspergillosis caused by an albino strain of A fumigatus.Entities:
