Abstract
Abstract : Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disease that commonly affects the nasal and nasopharyngeal mucosa caused by Rhinosporidium seeberi. It rarely presents as disseminateddisease. Pulmonary involvement is even rarer. We describe a patient who had undergone treatment for recurrent nasal rhinosporidiosis and who presented with disseminated disease in the form of multiple subcutaneous swellings and pulmonary lesions.
