Rhinocerebral Mucormycosis With Brain Abscess Presenting as Status Epileptucus in a COVID-19-Infected Male: A Calamitous Complication.

With the evolution of COVID-19 disease, the emergence of more complications associated with COVID-19 is taking place. Mucormycosis is the most common opportunistic fungal infection encountered after COVID-19. In this case report, we describe a case of a 61-year-old male type 2 diabetic with sino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis infection who was treated with conventional guidelines for a recent COVID-19 infection and further presented with generalized tonic-clonic status seizures. Neuroimaging revealed sino-orbital mucormycosis with right frontal lobe abscess. He was treated with anti-epileptics, steroids, amphotericin-B, and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
