A 60-year-old, poorly controlled diabetic presented to the emergency department with "facial swelling." She was found to have epistaxis and ipsilateral palsies of cranial nerves I through IX. An ischemic area of the left hard palate was also noted, leading to the diagnosis of rhinocerebral mucormycosis. This disease, inevitably lethal if untreated, should be sought in all diabetics with signs or symptoms suggestive of sinus or neurological disease.
一名60岁、糖尿病控制不佳的患者因“面部肿胀”就诊于急诊科。她被发现有鼻出血以及同侧第Ⅰ至Ⅸ对脑神经麻痹。还注意到左侧硬腭有一个缺血区域，从而诊断为鼻脑型毛霉菌病。这种疾病若不治疗必然致命，对于所有有提示鼻窦或神经系统疾病体征或症状的糖尿病患者都应考虑到该病。
