Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1992
Mucormycosis refers to the disease caused by a growing number of members of the Mucorales. Typically an airborne infection, primary disease is initiated in the upper or lower airways and is associated with the clinical development of sinusitis, rhinocerebral mucormycosis, or pulmonary infection.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1989
We report two cases of primary cutaneous mucormycosis in immunocompromised patients. Although their clinical presentation showed nonspecific necrotic ulcers, the histopathologic features were diagnostic. In both cases, broad, branching, nonseptate hyphae were found in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue.

AbstractThe patient, a 59‐year‐old male, had been diagnosed as having alcoholic hepatopathy 20 years previously. He noticed localized swelling on his left leg after fishing in a river. The patient was diagnosed as having cutaneous mucormycosis upon histological and mycological examination of the skin.

Mucormycosis (formerly zygomycosis) is a life-threatening opportunistic mycosis that infects a broad range of hosts with qualitative or quantitative defects in innate immunity, including patients with severe neutropenia, recipients of corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medications, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, and those with iron ...

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1982
We report a case of rhinocerebral mucormycosis associated with diabetic ketoacidosis. The features of this rare, fulminating, fungal infection were not appreciated because of ignorance about the condition. The typical features include continued drowsiness in spite of correction of the diabetic ketoacidosis, black ulcer of the palate, septum or ...

Two cases of orofacial mucormycosis are reported. The first patient represents the typical progression of rhinocerebral mucormycosis with infiltration of the sinuses, the orbit, and the brain. The second patient had a tumorous maxillary lesion resembling fibrous dysplasia clinically and radiographically.

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2019
AbstractMucormycosis is an aggressive invasive fungal infection that occurs rarely in immunocompetent but frequently in immunocompromised patients. We present a case of a 68‐year‐old patient with cutaneous mucormycosis due to Rhizopus pusillus. He was initially hospitalized for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and diabetes mellitus secondary to acute ...

AbstractChronic rhinocerebral mucormycosis, as distinct from the acute fulminating form, has been previously unreported in the otolaryngology literature. We have observed two cases of chronic rhinocerebral mycormycosis with osteomyelitis and bony sequestration at 8 months and 2 years after apparent control of initial infection.

Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1979
Mucormycosis is an acutely malignant fungal disease causing local thrombosis and infarction. Gastrointestinal infection most commonly occurs in diabetics or in the immunologically compromised. This case demonstrates the radiological appearances of the gastrointestinal lesion and prolonged survival with amphotericin-B therapy.

Radiology, 1975
Nine cases of rhinocerebral mucormycosis are reviewed. Eight patients had diabetes and 7 had symptoms related to the orbit. Roentgen analysis of focal bone destruction and uniform mucosal thickening will frequently suggest the diagnosis. Mucormycosis should be suspected in the diabetic patient with destruction of the walls of the bony sinuses ...
