This is a case report of a 60-year-old female who developed distal radius osteomyelitis secondary to Mucor infection from likely hematogenous spread that was managed with ulnocarpal wrist fusion. Following serial debridement and systemic antifungal therapy, ulnocarpal wrist fusion offered functional limb salvage rather than amputation in this patient with significant operative risk and comorbidities.
Keywords: distal radius; fungal hand infection; mucor osteomyelitis; ulnocarpal fusion.
