Chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient: report of a rare case.

E Jin1, L M Wang, Q Y Li, X Feng, S L Ma.   

Abstract

Chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis (CNPA) is a relatively uncommon manifestation of infection with Aspergillus spp. which mainly affects immunocompromised or immunostressed individuals with underlying lung diseases. Here, we present a case of mediastinum-involved CNPA in an immunocompetent patient with no symptoms and previous good health.
