Description A clinicopathological study on 83 cases of rhinosporidiosis attended at Tirunelveli Medical College Hospital during 1979 to 1984 from Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu revealed its endemicity. The season has no apparent influence on the incidence probably due to chronicity of the disease. The incidence was mostly seen in 11-30 years age group (57/83). Males were predominantly affected (60/83). Temperature, pulse, respiration, blood pressure, bleeding and clotting times were within the normal range. Urinalysis revealed no abnormal constituents. Haematological examination revealed that the haemglobin level was below normal ranges (males - 8.58 g/dI; females - 7.71 g/dI). Though the total leucocyte counts were found to be normal the differential count showed a slight monocytosis (males - 8.39%, females - 9.17%).
