  • Title: Pulmonary zygomycosis. A cause of positive lung scan diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage.
    Author: Rozich J, Oxendine D, Heffner J, Brzezinski W.
    Journal: Chest; 1989 Jan; 95(1):238-40. PubMed ID: 2909343.
    Abstract:
    The diagnosis of pulmonary zygomycosis usually depends on the detection of fungal hyphae in biopsied tissue specimens. We describe a patient with a high-probability lung scan and diffuse pulmonary infiltrates due to Zygomycetes diagnosed by the demonstration of nonseptate hyphae in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.
