Abstract

We report a case of a 72-year-old female who presented with fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea accompanied by leukopenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. The diagnosis of acute aplastic anemia was confirmed through bone marrow aspiration. Treatment included glucocorticoids, immunoglobulin therapy, and plasma exchange. Subsequently, the patient developed gastrointestinal bleeding and abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) revealed perforation of the transverse colon. Pathological examination of surgically removed diseased tissue confirmed mucor infection. Despite receiving antifungal therapy with amphotericin B, the patient's condition deteriorated due to the sepsis progression. Mucor infection in immunocompromised patients should be vigilant, and early diagnosis may help improve prognosis.
