Abstract
Background: Case reviews of rhino-orbital mucormycosis in sufferers with coronavirus sickness 2019 (COVID-19) are at the rise, specifically in India. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chance aspect for excessive COVID-19 and mucormycosis on its own. The purpose of this is to carry out a scientific review of the literature to decide the capabilities of Opportunistic Infections due to overuse of steroid.
 Methods: Using key phrases like COVID 19, Mucormycosis, Mucor, Novel corona virus, and SARS CoV-2, a scientific review was carried out on the subsequent databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library.
 Results: Increased mucormycosis in India seems to be the end result of an unholy trinity of diabetes (excessive genetic occurrence), immoderate corticosteroid utilization (will increase blood glucose and results in opportunistic fungal contamination), and COVID-19 (cytokine storm, lymphopenia, endothelial damage). To lower the prevalence of lethal mucormycosis, all efforts must be taken to keep ideal hyperglycaemia, and best careful evidence-primarily based totally use of corticosteroids in sufferers with COVID-19 is suggested. Glucocorticosteroids (GC) play an critical position withinside the remedy of neuro-oncologic patients. GC are used for the control of malignant mind tumour’s, both number one of secondary, neoplastic epidural spinal wire compression (NESC), as adjuvant chemotherapy of a few relevant worried device tumours and perioperatively in mind surgery. GC are believed to exert their effect on mind tumours especially through decreasing the tumor-related vasogenic edema, in all likelihood through lowering the extended capillary permeability of the blood-mind barrier (BBB),
 Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus seems to result in a vicious cycle of hyperglycaemia and immunosuppression while coupled with the SARS COV 2 Virus and steroid treatment, which could cause excessive fungal colonization like mucormycosis.
Highlights
The severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARSCoV-2) (COVID-19) has been related to a few opportunistic bacterial and fungal diseases
Because of the associated comorbidities and immunocompromised states,sufferers are susceptible to boom immoderate opportunistic infections
A systematic literature are searching for changed into finished on database like PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane Library the use of key phrases like COVID 19, Mucormycosis, Mucor, Novel corona virus and SARS CoV-2
