The ethmoids (100 per cent) were the most common sinuses affected. Intra-orbital extension was seen in 43.47 per cent of cases, while intracranial extension was only seen in 8.69 per cent. Diabetes mellitus was present in 21 of 23 cases, and was uncontrolled in 12 cases.

The association between coronavirus and mucormycosis of the paranasal sinuses must be given serious consideration. Uncontrolled diabetes and over-zealous use of steroids are two main factors aggravating the illness, and both of these must be properly checked.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215121000992","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,8]],"date-time":"2021-04-08T05:48:15Z","timestamp":1617860895000},"page":"442-447","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":278,"title":["Post coronavirus disease mucormycosis: a deadly addition to the pandemic spectrum"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"135","author":[{"given":"S","family":"Sharma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Grover","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Bhargava","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Samdani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"T","family":"Kataria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215121000992_ref30","unstructured":"30 National Institutes of Health.
