In 2009 estimate 9 million new cases were registered worldwide, mortality due tuberculosis reached 1.5 million (Markowski et al., 2011). Tuberculosis may infect any part of the body, but most commonly occurs in the lungs (known as pulmonary tuberculosis) (Dolin et al., 2010). Extra pulmonary TB occurs when tuberculosis develops outside of the lungs. Extra pulmonary TB may coexist with pulmonary TB as well (Dolin et al., 2010). The under diagnosis of extra pulmonary tuberculosis lesions, along with an emerging global resistance to antitubercular drugs, warrants an increased awareness of the involvement of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in atypical lesions (Yadav et al., 2012).

In second wave of COVID there was notable surge in Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (AIFRS). We observed that use of systemic corticosteroids in treatment of COVID 19 especially among patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus increased the incidence of AIFRS.Methods: This is retrospective observational study carried out in a Tertiary care Hospital GMC Akola from period of February 2021 to august 2021 were patients with the suspected diagnosis of AIFRS were admitted and evaluated following a standardized protocol, including clinical examination diagnostic nasal endoscopy, radiological evaluation. Diagnosis of AIFRS was confirmed on histopathology.Results: Study was conducted in GMC, Akola of 136 patients out of which 97 were males and 39 were females. In our study...
