摘要
Rhino cerebral mucormycosis (RCM) is now one of the rapidly emerging opportunistic, destructive and angioinvasive fungal infection with a very high mortality and morbidity. Early diagnosis of this condition is difficult as there are lacks of specific clinical features or manifestations. Garcin syndrome is more often caused by skull base and rhinopharyngeal tumors or metastases, and basal meningitis. Here we report an elderly female who was post covid status and presented with rhinocerebral mucormycosis and went on to develop garcin syndrome.
