it’s an extensive and serious opportunistic infection with

immunocompromised or patients with co-morbidities.
Their treatment is medico surgical. Only an early and
adequate management guarantees a better prognosis.
We report the case of cervicofacial fungal cellulitis of
otogenic origin for a 39 years male patient, diabetic type

unfortunately fatal.
