ASPERGILLOSIS

A variety of diseases:

pulmonary, external ears, eyes, meninges, sinuses or blood stream

www.freelivedoctorcom

CLINICAL TYPES OF PULMONARY DISEASE

1. ALLERGIC

2. FUNGUS BALL

3. INVASIVE

www.freelivedoctorcom

Page 48: 3   Filament  Blasto

Difficult to diagnose

1. Clinical symptoms are not specific

2. Radiography not specific (except fungus ball)

3. Blood cultures seldom positive

4. Serology seldom positive (early)

5. Need invasive procedures for early detection
