Isolated renal mucormycosis in two AIDS patients.

J Santos1, P Espigado, C Romero, J Andreu, A Rivero, J A Pineda.   

Abstract

Two cases of mucormycosis in patients with exclusively renal involvement and advanced HIV infection are reported. In both cases the clinical course was relatively benign; in one case a tendency towards regression with no specific treatment was observed, and in the other case the infection resolved after nephrectomy and antifungal therapy. Renal mucormycosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of diffuse renal enlargement in HIV-infected patients.
