The sphenoid localization of aspergillosis is a rare sinusal disease, often latent or asymptomatic. The neurological complications are the result of invasive forms occurring in most cases for the immunocompromised or diabetic patients.

The authors refer to the clinical and radiological findings and therapeutic approach of this rare complication.
