Pulmonary mucormycosis—a case series

Pulmonary mucormycosis (PM) is a rare disease. Literature about the surgical management of PM in India is sparse. Recently, there has been a surge in the number of cases of mucormycosis in association with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, igniting the interest in PM. Hence, we endeavoured to analyse our surgical experience in treating PM prior to the pandemic, in a tertiary care centre, to provide insight into this disease. Data of 10 adult patients with isolated PM, who underwent surgery between the years 2009 and 2020, and maintained in our departmental database, were retrieved and analysed.
