  • Title: Pulmonary and rhinocerebral mucormycosis. Successful outcome with amphotericin B and griseofulvin therapy.
    Author: Brown JF, Gottlieb LS, McCormick RA.
    Journal: Arch Intern Med; 1977 Jul; 137(7):936-8. PubMed ID: 406869.
    Abstract:
    An ominous prognosis is associated with combined pulmonary and rhinocerebral mucormycosis (phycomycosis). We report the case of a diabetic patient with ketoacidosis who had extensive pulmonary and rhinocerebral mucormycosis that responded satisfactorily to amphotericin B and griseofulvin therapy. The affected lung is completely atelectatic and has remained so for 12 months without evidence of necrosis or abscess formation.
