 AB    Two cases of mucormycosis in patients with exclusively renal involvement
       and advanced HIV infection are reported. In both cases the clinical
       course was relatively benign; in one case a tendency towards regression
       with no specific treatment was observed, and in the other case the
       infection resolved after nephrectomy and antifungal therapy. Renal
       mucormycosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of
       diffuse renal enlargement in HIV-infected patients.
