Article

Summary

Two examples of aspergillosis developing in children with acute leukemia are presented together with a review of the pertinent literature. The increasing incidence of aspergillosis occurring among patients with grave impairment of immunologic defense mechanisms is stressed. The value of early diagnosis is emphasized as new effective agents for the control of aspergillosis are becoming available.
