Mucormycosis is a rare, rapidly progressive and often fatal opportunisitic fungal infection, which occurs most commonly in patients with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. We experienced pulmonary mucormycosis in a 49-year-old man with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. He complained of dyspnea, nonproductive coughing, fever and cold sweating for lmonth. On the twenty-eighth hospital day, bronchoscopic examination with lung biopsy revealed broad, non-septate hyphae with right-angle branching, diagnostic of mucormycosis. Intravenous amphotericin B therapy was stated. The lesion decreased in sized after 4weeks of theatment and almost disappeared on follow-up chest X-ray l0weeks later.
