Abstract
Mucormycosis is an ailment that originates from a saprophyte. Mucorales are a group of a growing number of members who have mucormycosis. The environmental contamination with fungal spore and now in COVID-19 the high use of steroid, which increases the occasion of mucor. It is a worldwide infectious disease as well as there is no vaccine to treat mucormycosis. Therapies for mucormycosis involve a coordinated surgical and medical approach. Antifungal therapy, iron sequestration, and adjunctive therapy are the various therapies to treat mucormycosis that will discuss in the article. Also the pathogenesis, identification of mucormycosis will review here.
