以双侧颅神经麻痹为临床表现的鼻眶脑毛霉菌病的临床特点(附1例报告)OACSTPCD

Objective To investigate the clinical features of rhino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis(ROCM)with bilateral cranial nerve palsies as the clinical manifestation.Methods The related clinical data about ROCM with bilateral cranial nerve palsy as a clinical manifestation was collected,analyzed as well as discussed in the manuscript.And the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results This patient was a healthy young man with new-onset diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis.The patient developed rapidly with acute onset,bilateral blindness,blepharoptosis and extraocular muscle paralysis.The presence of mucormycosis was confirmed by CSF second-generation sequencing,fungal fluorescent staining and culture.Although effective antifungal therapy was performed early,but the patient quickly presented with cerebral hemorrhage and herniation.Eventually,the patient died after discharge.Conclusions ROCM is a rare and high-mortality infectious disease.This case indicated that the clinicians should consider the presence of ROCM in patients with diabetes/diabetic ketoacidosis when the bilateral cranial nerves paralysis are the clinical symptom,whicn can not be explained by other lesions.CSF next-generation sequencing is helpful for rapid diagnosis.
