Summary: The authors describe an invasive pulmonary Aspergillus infection in three immunocompromised
patients (1x plasmacytoma, 1x autoimmune thrombocytopenia, 1x asthma bronchiale) and draw
attention to the possible occurrence of this disease also in subjects without serious neutropenia.
The common risk factor in all three patients was corticoid treatment. In immunocompromised
patients only early adequate and sufficiently long antimycotic treatment gives hope that the
infection will be controlled.
