SUMMARY A 60-year-old woman developed right-eye vision loss secondary to rhinocerebral mucormycosis. Routine MR imaging sequences including enhanced MR imaging showed normal optic nerves, but a diffusion-weighted sequence and apparent diffusion coefficient maps revealed markedly restricted diffusion in the right optic nerve. This MR imaging abnormality of optic nerve infarction due to mucormyco...

The diagnosis of invasive fungal infection (IFI) is particularly difficult in immunocompromised patients. Clinical and radiological findings supporting the diagnosis of IFI are very important. We presented a case report to emphazise the radiological findings of IFI as a diagnostic tool in an acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient with rhinocerebral and pulmonary IFI.

Mucormycosis is a clinical entity attributed to opportunistic fungal infection of order Mucorales. This includes several pathogenic subtypes. It commonly affects the rhinocerebral sites and the immunocompromized patients with devastating results. Visceral mucormycosis is a relatively rare complication. We report the first free sigmoid colon perforation secondary to invasive mucormycosis and dis...

Introduction
 Rhinocerebral mucormycosis is a rare disease, which causes serious and life-threatening fungal infections.The disease usually develops in immunocompromised individuals begins by mimicking cellulite, especially the face area, shows very rapid course.

 A 75-year-old male patient previously admitted to an external center with 3-4 days complaints of headac...

Mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic fungal infection. The most common infection site is the paranasal sinuses, although it can also occur in the lungs and skin. The fungus adheres to tissue membranes and forms thrombi, causing ischemia and hemorrhagic necrosis. Rhinocerebralmucormycosiscan occurin the nose, but mightrapidly spread to the orbit and intracranium. Therefore, prompt and aggressive...
