摘要
Invasive fungal sinusitis is a relatively rare disease and can be divided into acute fulminant, chronic, and granulomatous invasive fungal sinusitis. The conventional treatment is radical surgery combined with systemic amphotericin B administration, but the poor prognosis and unesablished treatment options require a better therapeutic strategy. We report three cases of chronic invasive fungal sinustis successfully treated with a combination of surgery and voriconazole, a new antifungal agent, with good responses in all patients. Voriconazole adminsitration could form the basis for a new standard treatment for invasive fungal sinusitis. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
