Twenty-one (60%) males and fourteen (40%) females, mean age was 44.17debridmentTwenty-one (60%) males and fourteen (40%) females, mean age was 44.17 years eighteen patients presented with COVID 19 and seventeen patients presented to our hospital post healing with history of using large doses of systemic corticosteroids. patients were managed by aggressive surgical debridement, antifungal drugs Amphotericin B and adjunctive treatment like local irrigation with amphotericin B and hyperbaric oxygen according to systemic conditions of patients. Hyperbaric oxygen was used in five patients post-surgically. all investigations were done with mean values of blood glucose level, hemoglobin and WBC were noticeably abnormal. The degree of severity, length of stay, and mortality rate were significantly correlated with the severity of systemic predisposing factors
