Abstract

Mucormycosis is an invasive fungal infection spreads progressively in immuncompromized patients. Early recognition and management of this infection is quite important. Underlying predisposing factors should be treated; in addition to the aggressive surgical debridement of infected tissue and appropriate antifungal therapy should be given. In this case report, a patient that has diabetic ketoacidosis with rhinoorbitocerebral mycormycosis treated by amphotericin B, endoscopic sinus surgery and hyperbaric oxygen is presented.

Özet

Mukormikozis immunolojik olarak baskılanmış kişilerde hızla yayılan invaziv bir fungal enfeksiyondur. Bu enfek-siyonda erken tanı ve tedavi oldukça önemlidir. Altta yatan neden tedavi edilmeli, buna ek olarak agresif cer-rahi debridman ve sistemik antifungal tedavi uygulan-malıdır. Bu olgu sunumunda diyabetik ketoasidozla bir-likte rinoorbitoserebral mukormikozis tanısı alan ve amfoterisin B, endoskopik sinus cerrahisi ve hiperbarik oksijen ile tedavi edilen bir hasta sunulmuştur.
