A case of mucormycosis causing palatal necrosis and orbital apex syndrome is reported successfully treated with systemic antifungal therapy, surgical debridement and control of underlying disease process. After one year of followup patient is blind with anatomically preserved right eye and ptosis as well as having palatal obturator. Mucormycosis should be considered in differential diagnosis of palatal necrosis and orbital apex syndrome.
