Abstract EN

Gastrointestinal mucormycosis is a rare life-threatening infection to which neutropenic patients are especially vulnerable.

Mycotypha microspora is a mucormycete that has not been described as a human pathogen.

We discuss the successful eradication of gastrointestinal Mycotypha microspora in a neutropenic patient with simultaneous pulmonary Aspergillus fumigatus infection.
