A. Hyphae with a large diameter invading blood vessels (HES, original magnification, × 400). B. Morphological features of mucorales (Gomori-Grocott silver method, original magnification × 1000). C. Association of two different hyphae in the same tissue section showing morphological feature of mucorales (arrowhead) and of aspergillosis (arrow). Asteriks: associated bacteria (HES, original magnification, × 800). D. Molecular biology a: PCR of Aspergillus b: PCR of Mucor: M: Marker, neg: negative controls, pos: positive controls.
