Cutaneous infections due to fungi of the order Mucorales are uncommon and usually present as a fulminant necrotizing cellulitis. We describe a case of a progressive wound infection at a surgical drain site caused by Rhizopus rhizopodoformis. The indolent nature of the infection and lack of systemic toxicity were atypical features. Mucormycosis should be suspected in cases of slowly progressive cellulitis in the appropriate clinical setting.
由毛霉目真菌引起的皮肤感染并不常见，通常表现为暴发性坏死性蜂窝织炎。我们报告一例由类根霉菌引起的手术引流部位进行性伤口感染病例。该感染的惰性性质和缺乏全身毒性是不典型的特征。在适当的临床环境中，对于缓慢进展的蜂窝织炎病例应怀疑毛霉病。
