Mind the gap: Management of an emergent and threatening invasive fungal infection—a case report of rhino-orbital-cerebral and pulmonary mucormycosis
چکیده انگلیسی

Mucormycosis is an emergent and threatening invasive fungal invasion underdiagnosed by clinicians due to lack of awareness and aspecific clinical picture. The authors describe a clinical case of a diabetic and cirrhotic patient who developed rhino-orbital-cerebral and pulmonary mucormycosis, non-responsive to treatment. Typical gaps in the management of this deadly disease are addressed. There is a strong need for novel therapies and an expectation that sponsors will recognize the critical need for randomized clinical trials.
