Mucorales fungal infections are aggressive and rapidly progressive. They are characterized by their angioinvasive component with extensive necrosis. This type of infection predominates in immunosuppressed patients and presents a high mortality, the diagnosis begins with the diagnostic suspicion and then with a thorough clinical review and complementary studies.
