Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infection Predisposing to Chronic Cavitary Pulmonary Aspergillosis

, 2021
Aspergillus is a large group of spore-forming fungi in the phylum Ascomycota. Aspergillus infections more frequently occur in individuals with pre-existing lung conditions such as cystic fibrosis and asthma and immunosuppressed individuals, and less ...

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

, 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.

Pulmonary aspergillosis

Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2015
Aspergillosis is a mycotic disease usually caused by Aspergillus fumigatus, a saprophytic and ubiquitous airborne fungus. Aspergillus-related lung diseases are traditionally classified into four different forms, whose occurrence depends on the immunologic status of the host and the existence of an underlying lung disease.

A Case Series of Chronic Necrotizing Pulmonary Aspergillosis and a New Proposal [PDF]

, 2013
Chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis (CNPA) is an indolent, cavitating process in the lungs resulting from invasion of lung tissue by Aspergillus spp.

Semiinvasive Aspergillosis: A Diagnosis to Consider in a Seemingly Immunocompetent Patient with a Pulmonary Nodule, Haemoptysis and Structural Lung Disease

Acta Medica, 2009
Semiinvasive pulmonary aspergillosis is an indolent form of pulmonary aspergillosis, which is seen mainly in patients who are mildly immunocompromised with underlying chronic lung diseases.

Validity of Platelia Aspergillus IgG and Aspergillus Precipitin Test To Distinguish Pulmonary Aspergillosis from Colonization

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
When Aspergillus, an ubiquitous, saprophytic fungus, is detected in respiratory tract specimens collected from chronic respiratory disease patients, it is important to determine whether it is a true infection or colonization.

Therapeutic effects of Rheumatoid Arthritis on Aspergillosis development [PDF]

Reviews in Clinical Medicine, 2020
Aspergillosis is a common fungal infection with systemic characteristics, which is caused by various species of Aspergillus. The infection could develop in immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients under specific circumstances. Based on the clinical

Pulmonary sequestration and aspergillosis [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2005
Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is an uncommon congenital disease. Symptoms when present are usually secondary to pyogenic infection. Our objective was to draw attention on superimposed fungal infection.During the last 20 years, we operated upon 19 intralobar PS.
