Histologically confirmed pulmonary aspergillosis in patients with light and moderate immunosuppression

Abstract

In the article a modern forms of pulmonary aspergillus infection are describes in detail, which are widely spread fungi in nature, and which can be saprophytes relatively to the human body or cause severe, diverse in clinical and anatomical manifestations, lesions of the human lungs. The review of modern classifications of pulmonary aspergillosis, as well as clinical and X-ray characteristics of individual forms of infectious lesions, is presented. In addition, data on the diagnostics of this infection are summarized, taking into account the forms of disease, the causes of the emerging diagnostic problems. In particular, the importance of background pathology and the state of immunity as prerequisites for the development of aspergillus infection is noted. The results of a personal analysis of 19 cases of pulmonary aspergillosis verified by histological examination are presented. Background diseases and/or conditions that served as the basis for the development of pulmonary aspergillosis, the level of immunosuppression of patients, and the clinical picture of the disease were studied in detail.
