[Aspergillus pneumonia].
Aspergilluspneumonia means a form of pulmonary aspergillus infection invading tissue and accidentally vessels of the lung. Because of lacking of typical clinical and roentgenological signs diagnose finding is realized by evidence of fungi (histology, culture, serology). From 87 aspergilloses 60 could staged as aspergillomas by the x-ray pictures. 27 cases were bronchiectases, carcinomas, bacterial pneumonias with aspergillus or pneumonias without other lung disorders and agents other than aspergillus. The difficulty to ensure the "pure" aspergilluspneumonia (invasive type) is pointed out, when histological proof is lacking. The therapeutical possibilities are discussed.
