摘要
Mucormycosis and cryptococcosis are invasive fungal infections that mostly infect immunocompromised patients and are associated with high mortality rates. Here, we report a case of a 54-year-old male with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus who was initially admitted with a complaint of right frontal headache and vomiting for 5 days. The patient was found to have paranasal sinuses mucormycosis, and later developed gastrointestinal cryptococcosis. A multidisciplinary approach and early management are important to avoid any delay in managing these life-threatening infections. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case reporting concurrent invasive fungal infections in a patient.
