Zygomycosis is an uncommon polymorphic fungal disease. One clinical subtype, nasofacial zygomycosis, is caused by infectious exposure to the organism Conidiobolus coronatus. A case affecting the nose and lips of a 42-year-old Malay man is reported here.

Zygomycosis is an invasive fungal infection with extremely high mortality caused by filamentous fungi which belong to Class Zygomycetes (Rhizopus spp., Mucor spp., Cunninghamella spp., etc). Despite of the similarities of the ecological characteristics and of the patients' backgrounds, zygomycosis is much rarer than invasive aspergillosis.

An unusual disease characterized by anorexia, progressive stunting and stomach impaction was observed in young ostriches after treatment with antibiotics. The massive accumulation of a clear white gelatinous mucus adherent to the inner surface of the ventriculus plus a severe necrosis of the glandular layer were the only consistent findings ...

SummaryFifty‐six patients with cerebral zygomycosis (mucormycosis) were seen during the period 1971–2001 in two tertiary care hospitals located in south India with tropical climate and catering to neurological diseases. Forty‐four patients had rhinocerebral and twelve patients had isolated central nervous system (CNS) zygomycosis.

Dermatologic Clinics, 1996
In our increasingly immunocompromised populations, zygomycosis is becoming more common. It occurs in two forms. Mucormycosis is an acute, necrotic, rapidly progressive disease of the immunocompromised patient that may lead quickly to death. Entomophthoromycosis is a chronic, slowly progressive subcutaneous disease seen mostly in immunocompetent ...

We describe a patient with zygomycosis that resembled herpes zoster infection. The diagnosis was readily made with a potassium hydroxide preparation that revealed sparsely to non-septate hyphae. The patient responded to combination antifungal therapy with amphotericin B and fluconazole.

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1989
Zygomycosis represents an excellent example of an opportunistic fungal infection that generally occurs in the debilitated, immunocompromised, or acidotic host. Infections are usually fulminant, with etiologic agents exhibiting predilection for invasion of blood vessels with resultant infarction and necrosis.

An immunosuppressed patient had zygomycosis and was successfully treated with amphotericin B. Infection was rapidly diagnosed by demonstration of hyphae in impression smears of lung tissue and was confirmed by subsequent culture. Rapid diagnosis and prompt therapy are believed to have contributed to the successful outcome.

The fungal disease zygomycosis was diagnosed in the thoracic cavity of two 7-weeks-old ducks. In the first case, the diagnosis was based on examination of granulomas that were found to contain fungal hyphae characteristics of zygomycetes. The second case was diagnosed using similar criteria along with the subsequent culture of Mucor sp. from the lesion.

Pulmonary zygomycosis is an uncommon opportunistic fungal infection. Diabetics have a tendency to develop major airway lesions. This can lead to invasion of the airway wall and hilar vessels with infarction and severe haemoptysis. Aggressive early surgery appears to offer the best chance of recovery.
