Abstract
Total paralysis of all or near all unilateral cranial nerves indicates Garcin syndrome. Garcin syndrome caused by Rhino-Orbito-Cerebral Mucormycosis (ROCM) complicating with cerebral infarction has been reported rarely. ROCM is an opportunistic fungal infection with high morbidity and mortality rates despite treatment due to acute angioinvasive infections. We report the case of a 69-year-old female, with a history of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM), who presented Garcin syndrome caused by ROCM.
