E F Masucci, J A Fabara, N Saini, J F Kurtzke.

Cerebral mucormycosis was found at autopsy in a 27-year-old male narcotic addict with rapidly progressive focal neurologic signs. There was no evidence of rhinocerebral involvement of systemic illness, and a nuclide brain scan suggested brain abscess.
