Abstract Mucormycosis is an acute fulminant fungal infection. Mucormycosis usually accompanies uncontrolled diabetes [in particular, patients with ketoacidosis], malignancies like lymphoma or leukemia, renal failure, organ transplantations, long-term corticosteroid or immunosuppressant therapy, and conditions including burns, cirrhosis, protein-energy malnutrition or AIDS, though it also may be seen in healthy individuals. A 21-year-old male patient applied to our clinic with cleft lip and nasal deformity. It was understood from his medical history that he was diagnosed with lymphoma at age 10 and he developed an infection in his palate and nose during the treatment course. His cleft palate and nasal deformity was repaired by surgery in our clinic. Herein we reported a case of nasal deformity and incomplete cleft palate caused by mucormycosis infection.
