Abstract
There have been a variety of complications reported during and post- COVID infection. Recently, there has been an increase in sporadic cases of paranasal sinus mucormycosis in COVID- 19 patients. We report a case of COVID- 19 patient diagnosed to have orbital apex syndrome secondary to mucormycosis of nose and paranasal sinus requiring emergency endoscopic sinus surgery. Appropriate use of personal protective equipment and safety precautions taken by health care workers prevented the spread of the virus during surgery.
