Abstract

Background: The global COVID-19 pandemic has brought forth numerous medical challenges, including the emergence of secondary infections, particularly fungal infections in patients recovering from SARS-CoV-2. There is a growing concern about the oral complications and fungal manifestations in such patients. Currently, most literature on this subject is limited to case reports or case series, with little long-term data available. This review aims to highlight the occurrence of oral fungal infections, particularly mucormycosis, and their clinical presentations, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic interventions in COVID-19 patients. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are critical for improving outcomes in affected individuals.
