Abstract

Abstract Insect bites are rarely reported to result in myocutaneous mycoses. We reviewed the literature and report 22 cases. Molds were the most common pathogens (15), especially Mucorales (9). Infections were typically misdiagnosed, and 68% had necrotizing features, often requiring amputation or extensive surgery. Both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients were affected.
