CT and MRI Findings of Invasive Mucormycosis in the Setting of COVID-19: Experience From A Single Center in India.

Abstract

Rising incidence of rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) in patients with COVID-19 has recently been reported in India. We report imaging findings from 25 patients with COVID-19 and invasive ROCM from a single hospital in India. Findings included sinus wall erosions (n=20), air within bony sinus structures (n=11), and focal mucosal nonenhancement (n=8). Orbital, vascular, and intracranial complications were also observed. Radiologists should recognize the increasing incidence of ROCM in COVID-19 to facilitate early diagnosis.
