G R Nimmo1, R F Whiting, R W Strong.

Disseminated mucormycosis occurred in a 19 year old female following orthotopic liver transplantation for fulminant Wilson's disease. The causative organism Cunninghamella bertholletiae has previously been described in ten clinical cases, but never before in this setting.
