RESUMO
Mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic devastating fungal infection, which usually occurs in immunocompromised patients. Mucormycosis has multiple presentations that the predilection for one of these presentations varies with the either underlying or predisposing condition. We present a case of pulmonary and rhinocerberal mucormycosis in 56-year-old man with diabetic ketoacidosis.

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a well-documented complication that arises as a result of immunosuppression in the setting of solid organ or bone marrow transplantation. The disorder may be subtle and/or extranodal. We report a patient with extranodal lymphoma following kidney transplantation who had successful treatment with surgery and chemotherapy.
