The authors describe a case of invasive nasosinusal aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient. After a careful bibliographic review, they emphasize that in the present case the diagnosis was made by means of fungal culture as the clinical picture, imaging techniques and histopathological findings were aspecific. The pathogenetic agent resulted Aspergillus tamarii which belongs to the Aspergillus flavus group and is one of the most unusual agents in literature. The treatment of choice, in the invasive form, is surgery that should be as radical as possible followed by a medical therapy. In the present case, after two-phase radical surgery on all the paranasal sinuses, medical treatment with traconazole was employed with excellent local results at a follow-up of one year.
