Preferred Name |
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis |
Definitions |
Infection of the lungs with aspergillus. In the respiratory mucosa, the spores may germinate into hyphae, which in turn can invade the mucosa leading to invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis usually occurs in severely immunocompromised patients. Classic at-risk patients are those with prolonged neutropenia, either due to chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy, post hematopoietic stem cell transplant (SCT), or solid organ transplant. |
