Dong M, et al. - Given the challenges and controversies regarding surgical treatment for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), an opportunistic fungal infection, in patients who are undergoing chemotherapy for hematological malignancies, have hematopoietic stem cell transplants, and are immunosuppressed, researchers reported outcomes of four leukemia patients who were successfully treated with curative lobectomy or wedge resection for IPA in their hospital. In all cases, postoperative courses were uneventful and long-term follow-up for their leukemia was resumed. These findings suggest the possible safety and feasibility of performing surgical resection of focal invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in appropriately selected cases. Median hospital stay after surgery was 17.25 days.
