Abstract

This case report discusses a rare and severe complication of COVID-19 recovery - renal mucormycosis leading to right renal artery pseudoaneurysm. A 59-year-old patient, previously treated for COVID-19, presented with dry cough, flank pain, and hematuria. He was diagnosed with renal artery pseudoaneurysm with renal mucormycosis. Successful management included urgent angioembolization, systemic liposomal amphotericin B, and subsequent radical nephrectomy post-stabilization. The case underscores the importance of vigilant post-COVID-19 follow-up, particularly in patients treated with steroids, and highlights the need for a multidisciplinary approach for timely diagnosis and effective management of mucormycosis related complications.
