Isolated renal zygomycosis in an immunocompetent patient.

Ajay Kr Singh1, Madhu Mati Goel1, Chani Gupta1, Suresh Kumar2.   

Abstract

Zygomycosis is a rare opportunistic fungal infection in immunocompetent patients. Isolated renal involvement by zygomycosis is extremely rare and diagnosed mainly during postmortem study. We report a case of a 22-year-old man with right upper quadrant pain and fever. The CT of the abdomen revealed renal cell carcinoma and subsequent nephrectomy was performed. The histopathological diagnosis of nephrectomy established zygomycosis. After that patient was given 2 months antifungal therapy and is living well even after her 1 year follow-up. 2014 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
