Zygomycosis is an invasive mycotic disease caused by fungi in the class Zygomycetes. Within this class, the most common species associated with infection include Absidia corymbifera, Apophysomyces elegans, Cunninghamella bertholletiae, Rhizomucor pusillus, Rhizopus microsporus var. rhizopodiformis, and Rhizopus arrhizus.

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.

Zygomycosis, an uncommon but frequently fatal mycosis caused by fungi of the class Zygomycetes, develops most commonly as an opportunistic disease. Successful therapy involves a combined approach based on early diagnosis, prompt institution of medical therapy, and extensive surgical debridement of all devitalized tissue.

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 has emerged as an increasingly common infection in immunocompromised patients. Although the majority of these cases are community acquired, hospital outbreaks have been described, linked to the use of contaminated products. Risk factors for development of zygomycosis include uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, neutropenia, use of ...

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.

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.

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.

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.
