Maxillary bony sequestration as a delayed complication in immunocompetent individuals is rare, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. A 31\u2010year\u2010old male with no comorbidities presented in September 2021 with COVID\u201019 pneumonia (Delta variant), treated with dexamethasone and remdesivir. In October 2021, he developed right maxillary hypoesthesia and cheek swelling. Nasal endoscopy and biopsy confirmed mucormycosis, managed with liposomal amphotericin B and endoscopic debridement. In February 2023, malodor and tooth loosening prompted imaging, revealing maxillary bony sequestration due to fungal\u2010induced vascular thrombosis and necrosis, treated with surgical resection and prosthetic reconstruction. One\u2010month follow\u2010up (March 2023) showed no recurrence or complications, though the short follow\u2010up limits long\u2010term conclusions. This case underscores maxillary bony sequestration as a rare, delayed complication of CAM, even in immunocompetent patients. Persistent symptoms like malodor or tooth mobility warrant imaging and surgical evaluation. Long\u2010term follow\u2010up is crucial to detect and manage such sequelae.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.71080","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,1]],"date-time":"2025-10-01T08:56:06Z","timestamp":1759308966000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Post\u2010\n                    <scp>COVID<\/scp>\n                    \u201019 Maxillary Bony Sequestration: A Case Report on Mucormycosis Challenges"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4050-7714","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saleh","family":"Mohebbi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ENT and Head and Neck Research Center and Department, The Five Senses Health Institute, School of Medicine, Hazrat Rasoul Akram Hospital Iran University of Medical Sciences  Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4868-9383","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammadsadegh","family":"Zabihidan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ENT and Head and Neck Research Center and Department, The Five Senses Health Institute, School of Medicine, Hazrat Rasoul Akram Hospital Iran University of Medical Sciences  Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9755-0110","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Omidvari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ENT and Head and Neck Research Center and Department, The Five Senses Health Institute, School of Medicine, Hazrat Rasoul Akram Hospital Iran University of Medical Sciences  Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4610-9357","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mehdi","family":"Abrishami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Isf.C Islamic Azad University  Isfahan Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","volume-title":"Oral Pathology: Clinical Pathologic Correlations","author":"Regezi J.
