Introduction: The human body is a structure composed of billions of specialized cells, each activity goes through the control of the Central Nervous System (CNS). Neuroinfections are pathologies that affect the CNS, for example, we have Murcomycosis, a progressive infection caused by opportunistic fungi of the order Mucorales, with high frequency in Immunodepressed patients, Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the main underlying pathology associated with the development of Rhinocerebral Murcomycosis, which represents 50% of the cases, with a mortality rate of 70% (Sidrim, 2012, p.168). Objective: To highlight the main symptoms associated with Murcomycosis and Diabetes Mellitus. Methodology: Literary review of the Scielo, Shola.google PubMed and library collections, from 2012 to 2021, with the descriptors: Mycosis, Diabetes mellitus and Central Nervous System. Results: It was evidenced that 90% of the diagnosed cases refer to patients with a high degree of immunodepression, mainly due to DM, the main symptoms include unilateral facial pain, headache and fever, frequently resulting in necrosis of the paranasal sinuses. Conclusion: Considering the findings of Murcumicosis associated with DM, it becomes essential to apply informative strategies regarding healthy eating and physical habits, protected by an efficient policy aimed at reducing the incidence of the disease as a basis, the diagnosis of Murcomycosis can be reduced. |
