In patients with sinusitis, nasal obstruction and purulent discharge from the maxillary sinus are frequently observed. Mostly, it responds to antibiotic treatment. But in case of not responding, although fungal infection is a rare entity, we have to consider fungal sinusitis. We recently experienced a case of acute aggravation of fungal maxillary sinusitis after zygomaplasty. Endoscopic sinus surgery was performed and foreign materials were observed inside the right maxillary sinus. They were gauzes, which had been used during previous surgery. Intraoperative examination demonstrated a dark brown, cheese-like material in the sinus. After surgery, the patient's symptoms disappeared gradually. The culture examination identified the surgical sample to be Trichosporon asahii. So we reported with a review of literature.

We report the first case of summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis(SHP) in Korea diagnosed by positive serum antibodies to Trichosporon cutaneum. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis(HP) has been commonly classified as an occupational respiratory diseases. However, evidence that sensitizing organisms can also contaminate and cause pulmonary diseases in home environment has been increasing. One such disease is SHP. In Japan, 75% of cases with HP are SHP. Even though there has been no known SHP case in Korea yet, there has been high possibility of SHPs in Korea because our country has areas which have hot and humid summer climate similar to Japan. This first case of SHP in Korea suggests that there may be another cases in Korea and nation-wide survey may be required. We report here the first confirmed case of SHP in Korea.

Since the report of disseminated trichosporonosis in 1970s, several cases of infection by various Trichosporon species in different clinical patients were published. We've isolated a strain of T. asahii from not only blood but also urine. We report 71 year-old male patient with Trichosporon asahii fungemia, who had renal stones. It was identified as T. asahii using conventional method and also confirmed by 18S rRNA gene sequencing. The patient was discharged without any complication, in which case only antibiotic agent was used without any antifungal one.
