Abstract
Objective — to present our own experience of surgical treatment of pulmonary aspergillosis. Materials and methods. During last ten years, 18 patients with pulmonary aspergillosis were observed. In 14 (77.8 %) cases aspergilloma was diagnosed and in 3 (16.7 %) patients — invasive aspergillosis. In 10 (55.6 %) patients with aspergilloma, resections were performed. 4 (22.2 %) patients were denied surgery due to significant respiratory disorders. The average age of patients was (44.6 ± 14.1) years. The duration of the background disorder before the operation was from 2 to 108 months. All patients received specific antifungal therapy before and after surgery. Results and discussion. Performed operative interventions were following: 4 (36.4 %) pleuropulmonectomy, 5 (45.5 %) lobectomy, 1 (9.1 %) typical resection of the pyramid and S3 on the right. Thoracoplasty was performed in 1 (9.1 %) patient during the surgical procedure. The average duration of the operation was (225.9 ± 78.6) min, and the average intraoperative blood loss was (300.0 ± 286.8) ml. Conclusions. Surgical treatment of pulmonary aspergillosis is a difficult challenge with many unsolved questions. Systematization of own experience and literature data gives an opportunity to increase the results of the treatment.
