AbstractIt is described a pulmonary mucormycosis in an 11-year-old child with AIDS. The diagnosis was obtained by direct examination of the bronchial aspiration. The non-septate, hyaline, dichotomous, pathognomonic cenotic hyphae of this disease were observed. The child was cured with the specific treatment with Amphotericin B, since he died a year later and this affection did not appear in the necropsy. This combination of pulmonary mucormycosis and AIDS has never been reported in Cuba.
