RESUMEN

Zygomycosis is an opportunistic fungal infection that seldom occurs in individuals with a competent immune system. Isolated involvement of any organ is rare and only a few cases of renal zygomycosis have been reported. We present an unusual case of renal zygomycosis caused by Apophysomyces elegans in a patient with no known predisposing factor. He presented with flakes in the urine and was found to have a poorly functioning right kidney. Ureterorenoscopy was performed, fungal elements removed and pathological confirmation obtained. The patient subsequently underwent nephrectomy after treatment with amphotericin B. He made an uneventful recovery.
