Abstract:
CONCLUSIONS: Invasive fungal sinusitis is a highly lethal infection in an immunocompromised population that can spread rapidly to involve the adjacent structures by direct invasion or through vascular invasion. Involvement of cerebral parenchyma by vascular invasion is a devastating complication in these patients which may lead to vasculitis, thrombus formation, cerebritis, or abscess formation. Here, we present a case of a young male with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus who initially presented with COVID-19 lung disease and later developed sinonasal mucormycosis complicated with left orbital cellulitis and pulmonary mucormycosis.
摘要:
结论:侵袭性真菌性鼻窦炎是免疫功能低下人群中的一种高度致死性感染,可通过直接侵袭或血管侵袭迅速传播,累及邻近结构。血管侵犯累及脑实质是这些患者的毁灭性并发症,可能导致血管炎,血栓形成,脑炎,或脓肿形成。这里,我们介绍了1例年轻男性未控制的糖尿病患者,最初出现COVID-19肺部疾病,后来出现了合并左眶蜂窝织炎和肺部毛霉菌病的鼻窦毛霉菌病.
