Abstract
Basidiobolomycosis is an unusual fungal infection that manifests in the skin and rarely involves the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis is rarely reported in the medical literature. We report a 1.5-year-old boy from the south of Iran with bowel obstruction which was diagnosed as gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis.
