Abstract

We report a pulmonary mucormycosis due to Absidia corymbifera. It occurred in a leukemic patient treated for a probable aspergillosis regressing after voriconazole treatment. The patient responded to surgery and a combination of liposomal amphotericin B and itraconazole. He was alive and well after 7-months of follow up.
