[Prevalence of bronchopulmonary aspergillosis at the pulmonological hospital].
The prevalence and the character of aspergillous infection were studied among 64 patients (33 men and 31 women) seen at the pulmonological hospital. Ten patients of that group were diagnosed to have bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. In all the cases, the disease was regarded as secondary one: 2 patients suffered from chronic aspergillous pneumonia and 8 patients from different patterns of aspergillous bronchitis. The risk factors of the disease development are described. The data obtained indicate that secondary bronchopulmonary aspergillosis occurs not infrequently. The estimation of the risk factors, careful clinical examination, and specific mycologic and serologic tests allow an early diagnosis of bronchopulmonary aspergillosis followed by institution of adequate treatment.
