摘要
Introduction. - Mucormycosis is a rare, devastating, fungal infection, which disproportionately affects non-controlled diabetic patients, notably during ketoacidosis. The authors report the case of cervical mucormycoses with a particularly favorable evolution in diabetic woman. Report. - A 54-year-old woman, type 2 diabetic, had presented a left lateral cervical mass. The diagnosis was confirmed by histological examination. She was treated with Amphotericin B with favorable evolution. Conclusion. - The mucormycose is a rare infection. The treatment is medical and surgical. The prognosis is severe with an overall mortality rate of 40%. (C) 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
