Abstract :
Mucormycosis is a rare but devastating infection. we present a case of chronic kidney disease stage V D with diabetic nephropathy who underwent renal transplant, on significant immumnosuppresives which later developed to Rhino Oculo mucormycosis. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and immunosuppression are the major predisposing factors to infection with Mucorales. Mucorales are angioinvasive and can infect any organ system. Lungs are the predominant site of infection in solid organ transplant recipients. Despite advances in diagnosis and management, mortality rates are still high. Prompt diagnosis is challenging and influences outcome. Treatment involves a combination of surgical and medical therapies. In our case patient was investigated by MRI and CT SCAN, mucormycosis was suspected and Extensive surgical deidement was done which lead to completee recovery of patient.
