摘要：

A case of sinus-orbital Rhizopus microsporus var. rhizopodiformis infection in a patient with graft versus host disease following allogeneic blood stem cell transplantation is reported. Commercially available pea straw compost used for gardening was suspected to be the source of the infection. After an initial relapse, treatment with surgical debridement, liposomal amphotericin B and posaconazole was successful.
