Abstract
Mucormycosis of the gut in neonates is rare, difficult to recognize and hence usually fatal.

We present a case of neonatal gastrointestinal tract (GIT) mucormycosis in a 2-day-old infant diagnosed following laparotomy and resection for presumptive NEC, together with a review of cases of GIT mucormycosis in newborn babies in the literature.
