Massive hemoptysis due to pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm in invasive aspergillosis in a patient with interstitial lung disease and suspected Aspergillioma: A case report
This case underscores the need for early suspicion of pulmonary aspergillosis in ILD patients, utilizing BAL and CTA for diagnosis, and combining endovascular embolization with antifungals. Given the absence of prior imaging and underlying fibrotic lung disease, distinguishing invasive disease from semi-invasive or chronic forms can be challenging.
