Occasionally, in Tropical and subtropical regions rare condition such as entomophthoramycosis may occur. This case demonstrates one such presentation. A 49 year old female presented with nasal obstruction who underwent complete endoscopic excision of the right nasal mass, histopathology report revealing entomophthoromycosis. Despite the rarity of the disease, ENT surgeons should keep in mind this clinical condition when dealing with chronic nasal masses.
