Invasive Aspergillus Tracheobronchitis Presenting as Subglottic Stenosis: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
We report a case of subglottic stenosis due to invasive Aspergillus tracheobronchitis requiring tracheostomy, highlighting the clinical importance of early diagnosis in airway‐threatening fungal infections. ABSTRACT Invasive Aspergillus tracheobronchitis (IATB) is a rare but potentially fatal manifestation of invasive aspergillosis. Because of its high

Semi-invasive aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient with Swyer-James-MacLeod Syndrome: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2010
Introduction Invasive and semi-invasive pulmonary aspergillosis usually occurs in immunocompromised patients. It has been described occasionally in patients with normal immunity and previous lung disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ...

A Meta‐Analysis on the Incidence and Associated Factors of Pulmonary Fungal Infections in Lung Cancer Patients: Evidence Predominantly From Chinese Studies in the Chinese and English Literature

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 6, March 2026.
This study aimed to estimate the incidence and risk factors of pulmonary fungal infections in lung cancer patients through a meta‐analysis of Chinese and English studies (up to April 2025). The findings indicated that: (1) Incidence: 14.0% (95% CI, 12.54%–15.45%); (2) Major Risk Factors: (a) Demographic: Age ≥ 60 years, male, smoking history.

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis presenting as thoracic mass causing obstruction of the superior and inferior vena cava in an immunocompetent patient: a diagnostic dilemma

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2015
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is a disease of immunocompromised patients, but its prevalence is increasing in immunocompetent persons. Patients usually present with non-specific symptoms, sometimes consistent with bronchopneumonia.

Infections in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Evolving Risks and Prevention Strategies

European Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 3, Page 204-214, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Infections remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), reflecting both intrinsic immune dysfunction and therapy‐related immunosuppression. The pathogenesis of immunodeficiency in CLL is multifactorial: neoplastic B cells impair humoral immunity, T cells are functionally exhausted, and ...

Pre-existing invasive fungal infection is not a contraindication for allogeneic HSCT for patients with hematologic malignancies: a CIBMTR study. [PDF]

, 2017
Patients with prior invasive fungal infection (IFI) increasingly proceed to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT). However, little is known about the impact of prior IFI on survival.

Granulomatous response to invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in an immunotherapy-naive host, a maladaptive response?

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2018
Pulmonary aspergillosis causes a wide spectrum of disease, ranging from asymptomatic airway colonization to severe invasive disease, contingent on the host's immune status and underlying pulmonary anatomy.
