Pulmonary aspergilloma is an infectious human disease caused by colonization of a pre-existing cavity in the lung by a fungus of the genus Aspergillus. The spores are transmitted through the air, without contagiousness between people and germinate in a cavity to form a “mycelial” ball. The disease can go unnoticed, especially in the early phases, but is often complicated by hemoptysis of variable abundance which can even be dramatic. Surgery is the treatment to stop the progression of the disease, but this surgery is burdened with significant morbidity and mortality. We report a study of 69 patients operated on for pulmonary aspergilloma. Our results in terms of better quality of life and prevention of complications are acceptable at the cost of reduced morbidity.
