Summary: | Pulmonary mucormycosis is an uncommon, serious opportunistic infection caused by fungi belonging to the order Mucorales and it occurs exclusively in debilitated or immuno-compromised hosts. It is known that the fungi can invade the blood vessels and cause serious ischemic necrosis and bleeding5. We experienced a fatal case of pulmonary mucormycosis in a diabetic 75-year-old man who developed a progressive necrotizing lesion despite administering proper and prompt medical and surgical treatment. We report here on this case along with a review of the relevant medical literature. 저자들은 잘 조절되지 않는 당뇨병을 가진 75세 환자에서 혈관을 침범한 폐 모균증으로 인해 항진균제와 수술적 치료를 시행하였으나 진행되는 다발성 괴사로 인한 객혈로 사망한 폐 모균증 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. |
