Allergic fungal sinusitis by Exserohilum rostratum and literature review
A case of allergic fungal sinusitis caused by Exserohilum rostratum, proven by culture and histopathology of the biopsy material, has been described. The identity of the isolate was confirmed by sequencing of ITS region and D1/D2 domains of rDNA. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of allergic E. rostratum sinusitis from Kuwait and Arabian Peninsula. Ten previously described cases of AFS have been reviewed. The report highlights the emerging importance of E. rostratum as a human pathogen in this region and role of molecular methods in its accurate identification.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
