摘要：

We present a case of a 2 year old apparently healthy child who presented with fever and mass on the mitral valve. Excision histopathology of the mass revealed mucormycosis. After 4 months, she had CNS embolisation with recurrence of cardiac lesion when investigations revealed associated T-cell immunodeficiency.
