Abstract

The recent rise of Invasive Fungal Infections (IFI), especially mucormycosis in COVID-19 patients, is further complicating the outcomes. Here, we present a case of concomitant rhino-orbital and breast mucormycosis after COVID-19. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of breast mucormycosis after COVID-19.
