Cutaneous Mucormycosis: A Case Report

Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic fungal infection. It usually is benign in immuno­competent patients, but it can lead to devastating consequences in immunocompromised patients. Immediate diagnosis and treatment are crucial in preventing fatality. We describe a case of cutane­ous mucormycosis in a man with a history of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in an effort to raise diagnostic suspicion of this life-threatening infection and prevent a fatal outcome.
