Figures

None — FIG. 1. CT scan at the level of the aortic arch shows evidence of a cavitated lesion in the posterior segment of the right upper lobe. The lesion contained about 1 cm of central soft tissue nidus, compatible with an aspergilloma.

None — FIG. 2. Histologic appearance from wedge resection of the upper right lung lobe demonstrates dichotomously branching hyphae, compatible with Aspergillus associated with adenocarcinoma (Gomori methenamine silver stain; original magnification 400×).
