  • Title: An unusual case of pulmonary invasive aspergillosis and aspergilloma cured with voriconazole in a patient with cystic fibrosis.
    Author: Chow L, Brown NE, Kunimoto D.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 2002 Nov 01; 35(9):e106-10. PubMed ID: 12384856.
    Abstract:
    The development of pulmonary aspergilloma and invasive aspergillosis is a rare complication of cystic fibrosis. We describe a 29-year-old patient with cystic fibrosis who had invasive pulmonary aspergillosis that was not cured by amphotericin B, liposomal amphotericin B, or itraconazole. This patient was subsequently successfully treated and cured with the novel antifungal agent voriconazole.
