Fatal invasive aspergillosis complicating severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

L Hocqueloux1, F Bruneel, C L Pages, F Vachon.   

Abstract

We report the first 2 cases of fatal invasive aspergillosis complicating severe malaria. In 2 nonimmune European adults without underlying disease, death was directly ascribable to invasive aspergillosis. We believe that transient malaria-induced immunosuppression allowed massive growth and overwhelming dissemination of preexisting Aspergillus colonization.
