Obstructive Pneumonia Associated with Endobronchial Aspergilloma: Successful Treatment with Interventional Bronchoscopy and Antifungals

Endobronchial aspergilloma is a rare disease. A 64-year-old man with severe diabetes mellitus developed a cough and fever and was referred to our hospital. He was diagnosed with obstructive pneumonia associated with endobronchial aspergilloma, underwent interventional bronchoscopy, and was treated with antifungals. While the optimal treatment has not been established, interventional bronchoscopy along with systemic anti-fungals may improve the outcome in such cases.
