Abstract:
Fungal infections of the orbit are infrequent. They typically affect immunocompromised individuals but, in some instances, can also affect an immunocompetent person. They mimic much orbital pathology clinically. Ours is a series of three patients eventually diagnosed with orbital aspergillosis but who, initially, were thought to have some other pathology.
Keywords: Aspergillosis; carotico-cavernous fistula; fungal orbital infection; masquerade; mixed fungal infection.
