Hepatic mucormycosis with abscess formation.

Henry Su1, George R Thompson, Stuart H Cohen.   

Abstract

We describe a case of hepatic mucormycosis with abscess, an uncommon presentation of mucormycetes infection. Our patient was initially treated with transcutaneous pigtail catheter placement, liposomal amphotericin B, and micafungin without improvement. The patient subsequently improved after hepatic segmentectomy and hemidiaphragm resection.
