Temporofacial zygomycosis in a pregnant woman.

Abstract:

:A 38-year-old Omani woman, seven months pregnant, developed extensive zygomycosis involving maxillary and temporal bones. No evidence of any underlying immune deficiency was detected except that which may be attributed to pregnancy. After delivery the patient was treated with repeated courses of amphotericin B, which resulted in a complete clinical resolution. Zygomycosis in uncomplicated pregnancy has not been previously described.
