    Author: Mohanty D, Dhar M, Dwivedi S.
    Journal: Trop Doct; 2010 Apr; 40(2):127-8. PubMed ID: 20305117.
    Abstract:
    Mucormycosis is an aggressive, opportunistic infection caused by fungi belonging to the class of Phycomycetes. Rhino-oculo-cerebral mucormycosis is the commonest anatomical presentation of mucormycosis and is a potentially fatal disease. We report here a case of a 65-year-old diabetic female who presented with a locally invasive type of mucormycosis and was treated successfully by surgical debridement along with medical treatment (Amphoterecin-B and insulin).
