Abstract

Mucormycosis is a relatively rare but dangerous infectious diseases. Burn patients, especially severe burn patients, are at high risk of mucormycosis. In recent years, the incidence of mucormycosis in burn patients has increased. At present, there are a few domestic literatures on mucormycosis in burns, with most being case reports without systematic summary. Based on the relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years, this article reviewed the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, diagnostic methods, and treatment methods of mucormycosis in burns, hoping to provide some basis for the diagnosis and treatment of mucormycosis in burns in China.
