Entomophthoramycosis, a rare fungal infection, can mimic various clinical entities. We present a case of entomophthoramycosis affecting a 3-year-old male masquerading as liver tumour, diagnosed on stereotactic biopsy and later on resected specimen. He improved following partial hepatectomy and antifungal therapy. A high index of suspicion and heightened awareness regarding its unique morphological characteristics are required for appropriate management.
