We present a case of rhinocerebral mucormycosis in a 47 years old woman without diabetic or immunodepression past. The diagnosis was confirmed through a histological study of the material obtained after surgery. The treatment with amphotericin B and radical surgery showed ineffective. The patient died two weeks after entrance. We make an evaluation of the etiopathological, clinical and therapeutic aspects and also a revision of the relevant literature.
