ABSTRACT
Zygomycosis is regarded as a rare fetal infection in diabetics and other immunocompromised patients. The usual manifestations of this infection are rhinosinusitis, pansinusitis, rhino-orbital and rhinocerebral. Primary gastrointestinal [GI] zygomycosis is a rare disease with a high mortality rate. The stomach is the most common site involved in GI mucormycosis. There are few reported cases of GI zygomycosis in the literature. Here we report a case of a diabetic woman with abdominal pain secondary to gastric zygomycosis that successfully responded to surgical treatment
