Abstract : This review article will provide an introduction to mucormycosis, a novel infection brought on by the pervasive filamentous fungus belonging to the Zygomycete class. Following candidiasis and aspergillosis, mucormycosis has emerged as the most common invasive mycosis in patients receiving haematological and allogeneic stem cell transplants. According to study, a black fungus infection can infect human organs and travel throughout the body via the bloodstream.

Keywords : Mucormycosis, Black Fungus, Monoclonal Antibodies, Immune-Compromised.
