Rhino-Orbital Mucormycosis in a COVID-19 Patient Co-Infected With Klebsiella Pneumoniae.

We present a case of a 34-year-old male with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and uncontrolled blood sugar with right orbital cellulitis and right ethmoidal and maxillary sinusitis. Histopathology of a middle meatus tissue biopsy collected via diagnostic nasal endoscopy (DNE) revealed the presence of Mucor and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae). After the administration of intravenous (IV) insulin, cefoperazone-sulbactam, and posaconazole (due to the non-availability of amphotericin B), he underwent surgical debridement and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). After being on antibiotics and antifungals for two weeks post-surgery, the patient had a favorable outcome and further tests revealed improved blood counts and inflammatory markers.
