Fungal sinusitis is a collective term referring to a number of entities, which can be divided into two groups, depending on the presence of fungal hyphae within or beyond the mucosa ¹:

non-invasive: hyphae do not invade the mucosa
- allergic fungal sinusitis
- sinus fungal mycetoma
invasive: hyphae are seen invading mucosa +/- beyond
