    Abstract:
    Mucormycosis is the name for invasive fungal infection caused by mucorales. The disease is uncommon and produces serious and rapidly fatal infection in patients with serious pre-existing illness. The classical presentation of rhinocerebral mucormycosis is involvement of nasal mucosa with invasion of paranasal sinuses and orbit. We report a case of mucormycosis in an otherwise healthy female who had developed acute renal failure following gastroenteritis.
