Abstract:
Mucormycosis is a rare but emerging fungal infection complicating solid organ transplantation. It is associated with a high mortality rate. We describe an unusual case of hepatic mucormycosis in a living donor liver transplant recipient presenting as delayed graft dysfunction, which was successfully treated with combination of liposomal amphotericin B and oral posaconazole therapy, without surgical resection. The patient had clinical improvement with normalization of liver function tests.
