A sinusitis caused by Cochliobolus hawaiiensis (anamorph: Bipolaris hawaiiensis) was diagnosed in metropolitan France in a patient originating from New Caledonia. The patient completely recovered after surgical treatment consisting in marsupialization of the mucoceles and removal of the fungus balls located in the left nasal cavity and the left maxilla and ethmoid sinuses. One year after, both endoscopic examination and CT scan of the sinuses were normal. Various clinical presentations of diseases associated with C. hawaiiensis have been reported. A review of the literature indicates that although C. hawaiiensis is very rarely reported in Europe, it is one of the major rhinosinusitis agents in areas with a relatively warmer climate, such as India or Southwestern USA. This is the first report of a sinusitis caused by C. hawaiiensis diagnosed in France, with a total recovery outcome.
