Abstract
Apophysomyces elegans, a member of the family Mucoraceae, was found to infect the chest wall and sternum of an immunocompetent man following minor trauma. As in previous cases, amphotericin B therapy alone was inadequate. Extensive surgical debridement was required in order to eradicate the infection.Entities:
