title: [Nasal rhinosporidiosis].
abstract: Rhinosporidiosis is a granulomatous disease of uncertain mycotic origin that is characterized by polypoid lesions, predominantly of the nasal mucous membrane and conjunctiva. It is endemic to India and Sri Lanki, but occasionally occurs in other regions of the world. We report a case in Spain. The modes of infection and transmission, as well as treatment, are discussed.
