Abstract

Pulmonary aspergillosis includes one of the forms of fungal infection due to the genus Aspergillus, and has several modes of clinical presentation that depend on the immunity and comorbidities. The aim of this study was to report on the case of an immunocompetent and previously healthy patient who developed a form of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, and to make a brief review on the subject.
