Pathogenesis and clinical features of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis – Is it possible to distinguish CNPA and CCPA clinically?

open access: yesJournal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2014
Background: The pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) including chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis (CNPA), chronic cavitary pulmonary aspergillosis (CCPA), and simple aspergilloma (SA) has been poorly investigated.

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.

The spectrum of pulmonary aspergillosis

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1988
THIS paper is a retrospective study of thirty-nine patients with lung disease, caused by aspergillus fumigatus, seen in two large general hospitals over a ten year period. The study was undertaken to establish the pattern and distribution of pulmonary aspergillosis in this group with particular emphasis on the nature of the underlying disorder ...

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.
