    Author: Hedges TR, Leung LS.
    Journal: Neurology; 1976 Feb; 26(2):117-20. PubMed ID: 943065.
    Abstract:
    Patients with orbital aspergillosis commonly present with unilateral proptosis and associated sinus disease. However, neither of these manifestations was observed in a 62-year-old woman who had an orbital apex syndrome with visual loss, complete ophthalmoplegia, and corneal hypoesthesia. Pathologic examination of specimen from a granulomalike mass removed at left frontotemporal craniotomy showed branching hyphae with the characteristic appearance of Aspergillus.
