  ABSTRACT: Here we report a patient with uncontrolled diabetes, who presented with giddiness and fall due to an episode of seizure. On evaluation with CT and MRI scans, he was found to have pan sinusitis with erosions of the skull base in the floor of sphenoid near lateral recess. PET-CT showed evidence of increased metabolism. He was operated upon by functional endoscopic sinus surgery and debridement of lesion near skull base. The histopathological examination revealed evidence of inflammation with no granulomas or fungal elements or tubercle bacilli. No organisms were grown in microbiological cultures. He started on empirical antibiotics for 3 months and showed improvement. We are reporting this case due to rarity to skull base osteomyelitis.
