The incidence of paranasal sinus mycosis has increased in recent years because of societal aging and the increasing number of diabetic patients. We report 38 cases of chronic noninvasive paranasal sinus mycosis treated with endoscopic sinus surgery between April 2011 and March 2018. The patients comprised of 13 men and 25 women aged 36 to 90 years, with a mean age of 70 years. In 16 of the 38 patients, no subjective symptoms were reported and paranasal sinus mycosis was found incidentally during imaging examination. Thirty-six patients had good prognosis, but 2 had a disease recurrence.
