Rhizopus Microsporus and Mucor Racemosus Coinfection Following Covid-19 Detected by Metagenomics Next-Generation Sequencing: A Case of Disseminated Mucormycosis

2023-09-19

Abstract excerpt

Mucormycosis is an invasive opportunistic fungal infection, which may be lethal and mostly affecting patients with immunodeficiency or diabetes mellitus. Among Mucorales fungi, Rhizopus spp. is the most common cause of mucormycosis, followed by genera such as Mucor and Lichtheimia. Here we report a patient with severe COVID-19 infection who developed nasal pain, facial swelling, prominent black eschar on the nasal...
