Abstract
Orbital apex syndromes may result from a variety of inflammatory, infectious, neoplastic, iatrogenic, traumatic, and vascular conditions. Adetailed history with review of systems is important in narrowing the differential diagnosis.
In an uncontrolled diabetic it is most commonly due to mucormycosis. Management is directed at the underlying cause and may be guided by surgical biopsy. Otolaryngologic consultation and neuroimaging confirm the diagnosis. we report a case of Mucormycosis with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and pansinusitis that spread to the left orbital apex causing total ophthalmoplegia and its complications.
