The most common site for fungal sinusitis is the maxillary sinus.
This is the largest sinus in the skull, located just below the eyes. Its location makes it susceptible to fungal infections, especially in individuals with weakened immune systems or those who have had previous sinus surgery.
While other sinuses, such as the frontal, ethmoid, and sphenoid sinuses, can also be affected by fungal infections, maxillary sinus involvement is most frequently observed.
The maxillary sinus is often the primary site of infection due to its proximity to the nasal cavity, where fungal spores can easily enter.
Additionally, its relatively large size and complex anatomy can create an environment conducive to fungal growth.
