Abstract
Aspergillus causes several pulmonary complications, but bronchial stump aspergillosis (BSA) is very rare. To date, 31 cases of bronchial stump aspergillosis have been reported in the English, German, and Japanese literature. The bronchial stump was closed by hand-sewn suturing in most cases, but we report herein two cases of BSA that developed after stapled closure of the bronchial stump.Entities:
