Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis

Revista Clínica Española (English Edition), 2020
AbstractInvasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) remains difficult to diagnose and to treat. Most common risk factors are prolonged neutropenia, hematopoietic stem cell or solid organ transplantation, inherited or acquired immunodeficiency, administration of steroids or other immunosuppressive agents including monoclonal antibodies and new small ...

Pulmonary aspergillosis

The Netherlands Journal of Medicine, 2001
Aspergillus species are ubiquitous in the environment and are inevitably inhaled into the airways. Inhalation of Aspergillus conidia or mycelium fragments may result in colonisation of the airways. In susceptible hosts colonisation may subsequently cause disease.

Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis

Respiration, 2002
<i>Background:</i> Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis usually occurs in immunocompromised patients. Mild abnormality of host defence is usually present in the chronic necrotising form of the disease. Acute aspergillus pneumonia usually affects patients who are seriously immunocompromised.

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2005
In susceptible patients, invasive aspergillosis has a high incidence and a mortality of up to 80%. The diagnosis of this condition is difficult, especially in the early stages of the disease and, as a consequence, antifungal therapy, despite its expense and toxicity, is often initiated empirically.

Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2004
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is the most common fungal pulmonary infection in severely immunocompromised patients. Aspergillus species are commonly isolated from the soil, plant debris, and the indoor environment, including the hospital. Phagocytosis is the main host defense against Aspergillus conidia and hyphae.

Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1980
To the Editor:— In reference to the article "Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis Associated With Influenza" by Fischer and Walker (241:1493, 1979), mention is made that invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is usually seen in the compromised host and that invasive disease is rare in normal persons. The authors mention only 13 cases of pulmonary aspergillosis

BRONCHO‐PULMONARY ASPERGILLOSIS

Australasian Annals of Medicine, 1964
SummaryThis is a survey of 14 cases of broncho‐pulmonary aspergillosis diagnosed during the six‐year period ended March, 1963. Dissemination of the fungus was found in only one case, this being also the only instance in which death could be attributed in large measure to the Aspergillus infection.
