摘要
Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis is broad term encompassing chronic cavitary, chronic fibrosing pulmonary aspergillosis and aspergilloma. All affect patients with structural lung diseases and many have subtle genetic immune defects. Almost all cases are caused by Aspergillus fumigatus. Here we report a patient with an aspergilloma which had Aspergillus flavus recovered from a surgical specimen and serum containing detectable precipitating antibody.
