Zusammenfassung
Aspergillusinfektionen bei immunkompromittierten Patienten sind häufig mit einer hohen Mortalität verbunden. Wir berichten über den Fall eines renalen Aspergilloms nach hämatopoetischer Stammzelltransplantation. Neben einer systemischen antimykotischen Therapie wurde eine chirurgische Intervention unumgänglich. Eine minimal-invasive, retroperitoneoskopische Resektion des Aspergilloms wurde durchgeführt.
Abstract
Aspergillus infections frequently affect immunocompromised patients and are associated with high mortality. We report the case of a renal aspergilloma in a bone marrow transplant recipient. Treatment is challenging and requires a combination of systemic antifungal therapy and surgery. In the present case, a minimally invasive retroperitoneoscopic resection of the aspergilloma was performed.
