Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Rhinosporidiosis, an infectious granulomatous disease, is seldom encountered in the United States. We present a case of rhinosporidiosis in a 26-year-old man, who presented with an unusual mass in his nasal cavity. Suspicion for rhinosporidiosis was high due to the patient's travel and activity history. After imaging and proper diagnosis, surgery was performed to excise the lesion. As international travel resumes during the COVID-19 pandemic, the potential for encountering this rare organism is heightened. PMID:34587820 | DOI:10.1177/01455613211049004 View on the web Inoreader.
