Extensive Sino-Orbital Zygomycosis After Heart Transplantation: A Case Report
Transplantation Proceedings, 09/23/09
Chitsaz S et al. – Early detection of opportunistic infections in transplant recipients plays a big role in preventing dissemination. Fungal infections, including zygomycosis, should be considered for recipients, especially those with risk factors, such as diabetes, who present with local unusual manifestations. Sinonasal and orbital mucormycosis, if diagnosed in timely fashion, can be managed to reduce mortality. Although devastation of one–side facial and ophthalmic structures was inevitable in this case, the overall outcome was acceptable.
