Aspergilloma, aspergillus enfeksiyonunun en sık formu olup parankimal kaviteye saprofitik kolonizasyon ile görülür. Bu durum, başta tüberküloz olmak üzere bronşektazi ve sarkoidoz gibi çeşitli akciğer hastalıkları ile birliktelik gösterebilir. Hastanın anamnezinde on iki yıl önce tüberküloz tanı ve tedavi öyküsü mevcuttu. En sık başvuru nedeni hemoptizidir. Aspergilloma tanısı göğüs radyografisi ve toraks bilgisayarlı tomografisi ile konulur. Aspergilloma cerrahisinde en sık anatomik rezeksiyon uygulanır ve toraks kavitesini doldurmak ve bronş fistülünü önlemek için flep uygulanabilir. Hemoptizi yakınmasıyla başvuran hastaya kaviter lezyon nedeniyle sol üst lobektomi uygulandı ve latissimus dorsi kas flebi ile bronş güdüğü desteklendi. Postoperatif dönemde komplikasyon izlenmeyen hastanın takiplerinde nüks saptanmadı.
