Tracheal, laryngeal and pulmonary mucormycosis followed by organizing pneumonia in a patient with Adult Onset Still's Disease

We report a case of tracheal, laryngeal and pulmonary mucormycosis in a patient receiving immunosuppressive medication for an autoinflammatory fever syndrome. Mucormycosis was confirmed by histopathology from tracheal specimens and molecular evidence of Lichtheimia. A surgical approach was not possible because of the multifocal disease pattern and the extent of tracheal involvement. The patient was successfully treated with liposomal amphotericin B followed by posaconazole maintenance therapy. After 9 months, recurrent pulmonary mucormycosis was suspected but emerged as organizing pneumonia without evidence of active fungal infection.
