title: First case of breakthrough pulmonary Aspergillus niveus infection in a patient after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
abstract: Aspergillus niveus is a species uncommon in clinical samples, and to date, invasive fungal infections caused by this fungal pathogen have not been described.
