title: [Clinical pictures of pulmonary aspergillosis].
abstract: Pulmonary infection with Aspergillus can present a variety of clinical manifestations. Essentially, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, aspergilloma, and invasive aspergillosis are the three main forms. The coexistence of more than one of these entities is not unusual. Predisposing factors for such mycotic infections include previous lung-structure damage, immunodeficiency, and disturbances in the equilibrium of the resident flora of the respiratory tract. The radiological changes in pulmonary aspergillosis are described in association with clinical presentations and laboratory findings and are demonstrated by actual examples.
