Rino-orbito-serebral mukormikozis, Zygomycetes türü küf mantarlarının neden olduğu, mortalitesi ve morbidite oranı yüksek fırsatçı bir mantar enfeksiyonudur. Mukormikozis için en önemli risk faktörü kontrolsüz diyabet ve diyabetik ketoasidozdur. Bunun dışında; desferoksamin tedavisi, demir yüksekliği, immünosüpresif ilaçlar, kortikosteroid kullanımı diğer risk faktörleridir. Bu yazıda, geç tanı konulan rinoorbitoserebral mukormikozise bağlı olarak görme kaybı ve serebral apse gelişen 62 yaşında diyabetik bir erkek sunuldu. Hastaya cerrahi debridman ile birlikte lipozomal amfoterisin-B tedavisi uygulandı.
