title: Gastrointestinal entomophthoramycosis caused by Basidiobolus haptosporus.
abstract: There was described the first cultural proven case of gastrointestinal entomophthoramycosis caused by B. haptosporus. A review of the literature on gastrointestinal zygomycosis led us to presume that similar clinical reported cases have been also caused by this fungus. A commentary on the designation of the clinical forms of the infections caused by Zygomycetes was also made.
