Parapharyngeal space(PPS) tumors are very uncommon. Though majority of these tumors are of benign origin, the most common among them is a pleomorphic adenoma. Surgical removal is mainstay for the treatment of these tumors for which a strategic preoperative evaluation of each patient and knowledge of different surgical approaches to PPS are essential. Here we report a rare but typical case of a 35 years old female presented to OPD with a mass in right the parapharyngeal space. The mass was excised successfully using mandibular swing approach and the post operative histopathology report suggested it to be “pleomorphic adenoma”.

Our institute happened to treat a signicant number of post covid mucormycosis patients and here is an observational study based on that data which deals with various etiological factors leading to the cause of mucormycosis during the outbreak, mainly focusing on the effect of covid 19 vaccine and incidence of mucormycosis.
