OutlineO History of AspergillosisO Aspergillus species informationO People at RiskO Clinical TypesO Detection/DiagnosisO Treatment

HistoryO First noted in 1815O Secondary infectionO Associated with certain occupations

Aspergillus sp.O Taxonomy

O Named after aspergillum

O 1926- 69 species

O 1945- 80 species

O 1965- 151 species

O 5 common species

O Many rarer species

O MorphologyO SaprophytesO Small, fluffy,

white coloniesO Pathogenic

species can be different colors

People at RiskO AIDS patientsO NeutropeniaO Chronic Granulomatous DiseaseO Solid Organ Transplant RecipientsO Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

Recipients (HSCT)

SummaryO Aspergillosis has been around for

hundreds of yearsO Secondary infection in

immunocompromised patientsO Many clinical types of aspergillosisO New detection techniques are allowing

for earlier diagnosisO Many treatment options but an ongoing

battle with fungal evolution and resistance
