Methods The clinical data of a patient with NIFS misdiagnosed in our hospital was retrospectively analyzed. Results The patient was misdiagnosed as having allergic rhinitis for having recurrent attacked rhinocnesmus, sneeze, and mass snot. Combined with paranasal sinuses CT detection, the patient was considered as having NIFS, and underwent endoscopic surgery. Pathology result confirmed the diagnosis of NIFS, and the patient received anti-fungi treatment without recurrence during a 5-year follow-up. Conclusion Misdiagnosis of NIFS is mainly due to atypical clinical manifestations and preconceived way of thinking by physicians. When the patient presents suspected symptoms of NIFS, the disease history should be collected thoroughly, and physical examination should be performed carefully for the purpose of timely diagnosis and treatment.关键词
