title: Pulmonary mucormycosis in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis: a case report and review of literature.
abstract: Mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic devastating fungal infection, which usually occurs in immunocompromised patients. Mucormycosis has multiple presentations that the predilection for one of these presentations varies with the either underlying or predisposing condition. We present a case of pulmonary and rhinocerberal mucormycosis in 56-year-old man with diabetic ketoacidosis.
