MCM: mucormycosis PAS: periodic acideSchiff INTRODUCTION Mucormycosis (MCM) is a fungal infection from members of the Mucorales order of fungi found almost exclusively in immunocompromised patients.

Primary cutaneous MCM in healthy patients is rare and, to our knowledge, the histologic presence of folliculitis has not been reported.
