Acute Invasive Aspergillosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Acute invasive aspergillosis is a serious infection caused by a fungus of the Aspergillus genus that can affect the lungs and, at times, spread to other organs, especially in people with weakened defenses.
Common causes: The fungus is found in the environment and, when inhaled, can cause disease mainly when the immune system is compromised.
Manifestations that are described: Fever, cough, difficulty breathing, and, in some cases, chest discomfort are usually reported.
Which specialist treats it? The pulmonologist is the one who evaluates infections that affect the lungs and guides the workup of the condition. If you have marked respiratory symptoms, especially if there are conditions that lower the defenses, a prompt evaluation is important.
