A case report of osteoarticular mucormycosis in post-COVID-19 patient

Mucormycosis is a rare invasive fungal disease often seen in immunocompromised individuals. The mucormycosis cases increased in COVID-19 patients from March to June 2021. Here, we report the case of a 61-year-old male hypertensive patient with COVID-19 who was treated with antibiotics and steroids for recovery. After treatment, he developed a secondary infection of osteoarticular mucormycosis which is uncommon and rare. We report this case here in detail.
