Gastrointestinal mucormycosis by Mucor indicus: A report of two cases
Mucormycosis is an invasive infection caused by fungi of the order Mucorales, typically affecting immunocompromised individuals, and rarely involving the gastrointestinal tract. We report two cases of gastrointestinal mucormycosis by Mucor indicus: a 77-year-old woman with a gastric ulcer and a 25-year-old man with liver lesions. Both were treated with surgery and liposomal amphotericin B; only one survived. Recognizing gastrointestinal mucormycosis in the correct clinical context is essential and requires timely surgical and antifungal treatment.
