[Pulmonary mucormycosis. Apropos of a case with serologic confirmation].
We report a new case of primary pulmonary mucormycosis. The radiographic evidence and anatomopathological facts demonstrate an intra-cavitary mycetoma of Fowler associated with a chronic pneumonia in the left basal segment. The patient was not immunosuppressed but had undergone a left upper lobectomy 25 years before. This appears to be the first case in which a serological study has confirmed the diagnosis.
