[Bronchial aspergillosis].
Bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is becoming more frequent, is often hard to diagnose and with today's antimycotics better to treat than before. It is therefore of current interest. This also concerns bronchial aspergillosis which is less common than pulmonary aspergillosis and the topic of this paper. A total of 39 patients with bronchial aspergillosis are presented: 1) 4 cases with endobronchial aspergilla, two which are visual bronchoscopically, 2) one case with chronic necrotising pulmonary aspergillosis (CNPA), where a bronchus has necrotised, 3) an invasive aspergillosis in the region of a bronchial anastomosis, 4) 7 cases with an Aspergillus invasion from endobronchial tumour tissue and 5) 26 cases with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). 37 of the 39 cases are part of a single centre study with a total of 116 bronchopulmonary aspergilloses, which were collected over seven years. The focus of attention in this paper is on the bronchoscopic and radiological results.
