Our study demonstrates that a combination of histopathology and ITS sequencing is a practically feasible approach that outperforms fungal culture in detecting Mucorales in tissue-associated infections. Therefore, pathologists might adapt diagnostic workflows accordingly when mucormycosis is suspected.
