  • 摘要:Background: Aspergillosis is a fungal infection occasionally found in immunosuppressed patients. The recommended management of patients with renal aspergilloma remains unclear. Methods: An HIV patient presented with flank pain and an abdominal mass. Renal aspergilloma was diagnosed. Results: The patient with CD4 above 200 did well with nephrectomy followed by amphotericin therapy for 14 days. Conclusions: The merits of surgery followed by antifungal chemotherapy or vice versa are limited. More studies are needed to ascertain the most effective method of treatment for Aspergillosis in HIV patients. . African Health Sciences Vol. 5 (4) 2005: pp. 341-342
