Article Synopsis
- Orbital apex syndrome (OAS) causes visual loss, double vision, and eye pain due to various underlying conditions, including acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (AIFRS).
- A case study presented a 76-year-old man with OAS linked to AIFRS, who underwent surgery and received antifungal treatment after a failed corticosteroid regimen.
- The findings highlight the difficulty in differentiating between AIFRS-induced OAS and other forms, emphasizing the importance of conducting a biopsy before corticosteroid treatment to avoid worsening fungal infections and ensure better patient outcomes.

- - A 23-year-old woman presented with pelvic pain and febrile episodes, leading to the discovery of an osteolytic lesion in the pubic bone, which was later confirmed to be caused by an Aspergillus fungal infection after surgical removal.
- - This case highlights the importance of considering fungal infections in XO cases and suggests that specific antifungal treatments should be included in the management plan, as XO can occur due to such infections despite being predominantly associated with bacteria.
