Pleural aspergillosis diagnosed by computerized tomography. 1987

H T Winer-Muram, and R L Scott, and C E Eastridge, and J E Salazar

As shown by the case we have reported, patients with a chronic pneumothorax and nodular, thickened pleura may have pleural aspergillosis. We recommend that when such patients have CT of the chest, the examiner use the alternate dependent position to look for mobile pleural debris.
